War in the Central Highlands of Vietnam 1968-1970

"This book is a unique study of the Vietnam War that is best called a memograph because it combines both the skills and methods of the formal historical monograph with those of the memoirist. Through its monographic lens, this book sheds new light on many important aspects of the Vietnam War. Among those new views are the strategic and tactical changes in the war created by the Tet Offensive, and the unique use of the draft to create the "Vietnam Only Army." Also, America's willingness to use nuclear and chemical warfare in Vietnam are presented in the context of our current concern with weapons of mass destruction."--Publisher.
