(2) 4-6 Freedman opens his history of America's second-longest war with the massive April 1971 protest against it. Without overwhelming readers, he then flashes back over two thousand years, outlining the many foreign powers that had subjugated Vietnam. Freedman doesn't back down from America's missteps. Instead, he shows how a multitude of events can lead to armed conflict with no simple solutions. Timeline. Bib., glos., ind.
