James does an outstanding job of taking an extremely complex conflict in Vietnam and breaking it down into 50 events. I should be surprised at the quality of this book since he has several other high quality books in the same series. With 50 key events, you get enough of the story line that you don't need an endless pile of facts and dates. Rather, most events can be summed up by looking at the key events that determined the flow of history. Brilliantly written and easy to read, this book is perfect for anyone who is studying the Vietnam war or simply wants a better understanding of this important historical event.
I am not a history buff but I would always engage myself reading because of my friend who happens to be a History major. It's hard to memorize dates, events, names and such but this book get me hooked reading on Vietnam War.There are photos, and detailed explanation about each event. Wonderful. It takes a good book to enjoy history. I like The Tet Offensive section. But all contents are really informative. Walk through the history and it matters.
I watched for the first time Stanley Kubrick's movie, Full Metal Jacket. The movie is about the American military's involvement in the Vietnam War and after watching the film, I wanted to do some reading about Vietnam War. I learned about how former POTUS Nixon and how the Watergate Scandal is linked to the Vietnam War and his reputation as the first American president to resign from the Oval Office. As I read one and saw some grainy black and white photos, I remembered one of the famous photos compiled by National Geographic, a naked Vietnamese toddler crying which gripped the entire world and ignited protests in the United States to have remove the military forces in Vietnam and to stop funding the war. A very informative book wherein I relearned some of the most important points in American history.
Most of us know about the Vietnam War and we know that our fathers took part a long time ago. But the reality is that some people don't know what it was about; I'm one of those people. I never took the time to really learn and understand about the war. This book sure has a lot of information about the war and I can say I now understand it a bit more than I did before. Now what I really like about this book is that its not long and it doesn't go deep into the history and the people involved, it goes straight to how the war started, the timeline of its duration and how it finally came to an end. This war represents a part of history we're not proud of, but it is our history. It is great to learn about history because it helps understand what led to the present and it possibly shapes the future.
I am from Africa so I wanted to learn more about the Vietman War as it is a part of history that I know little about. It also comes up a lot in movies and US television therefore, I felt the need to pick up this book to get clued up. This book is reasonably well written with the odd spelling and grammatical error which is hard to avoid. I actually learnt a lot in a very short period of time. The pictures were great and made for a more interesting read. I recommend this book!
enjoy books like this because they make reading history so much easier. Not that I don’t like history; I actually do, a lot. Admittedly though, when a history book is not written in a manner that is interesting to me, I quickly lose my focus. The short paragraphs in here were perfect for me. The photos were vivid and engaging, and they were my favorite part of this reading experience. Very fascinating read. I’d recommend it to students and history buffs!
It is always fulfilling to learn about the world's history and how our veterans fought for us to be alive today.This book was written to educate millions of people around the world of the wars that happened in Vietnam many many years ago. I gave 5 stars for content, consistency, wealth of information and spot on documentary. I can remember in high school being bored in history class and today I can't believe I can say that I red this book from cover to cover. Thumbs up to you Mr James Weber for educating young people today about the Wars of Vietnam. Absolutely love this book and will be apart of my history collection. I Highly Recommend to the History lovers!!
I always liked history, it was my favorite subject in school. Therefore, I'm always looking for books that can present past events in a captivating and interesting way. This is one of those books.The author does a great job in presenting a huge historical event in 50 smaller events. It is easy to read, it is interesting and you can see how one thing led to another in Vietnam War.I recommend this book, it is always nice to see history buffs like this author who know how to present information to a broader reading public.
