Taylor's book works nicely as a straightforward discussion of selected aspects of the history, literateure and film of the Vietnam War ! he provides a strong, well-written, up to date analysis of his individual topics ! It deserves wide reading by anyone interested in the Vietnam War or concerned with America's relationship with the rest of the world today. The Vietnam War and its aftermath holds enormous fascination for students and the general public alike ! While there is a huge and continually expanding literature on the subject, there have been few texts that offer students a short inter-disciplinary and thematic approach. Thus the present volume will fill a significant gap in the literature and should be of considerable interest to students and teachers studying the War as either a major or minor topic. -- Dr Michael Paris, University of Central Lancashire This has the potential to be a fascinating and useful text that would appeal to students in American History, American Studies, Literary and Cultural/ Communication Studies ! (the author) writes very well in an accessible style, which is both scholarly and readable. -- Dr Neil Wynn, University of Glamorgan Taylor's book works nicely as a straightforward discussion of selected aspects of the history, literateure and film of the Vietnam War ! he provides a strong, well-written, up to date analysis of his individual topics !
