A major contribution in an undeveloped area of foreign relations. Fry's research is superb and his writing is clear and persuasive. -- George C. Herring, author of From Colony to Superpower: U.S. Foreign Relations since 1776

While recent trends in the writing of U.S. history have emphasized globalization, it is also true that regional trends within the American national story remain significant. In The American South and the Vietnam War, Joseph Fry offers great insight into how the regional identity of the American South intersected with the making of U.S. foreign relations in the crucial engagement in Southeast Asia. Anyone interested in recent American history will enjoy this deeply researched study -- Thomas Borstelmann, author of The 1970s and The Cold War and the Color Line

Winner of the 2015 Georgia Historical Records Advisory Council Award for Excellence in Research Using the Holdings of Archives --
