Moïse (history, Clemson U.) presents a cross-referenced historical
dictionary of the Vietnam War that includes entries on significant
persons, places, events, armed units, battles, and weapons, as well
as important terms. Domestic political opposition to the war is
somewhat covered, even if the bulk of the material is focused on
the war itself. Before the presentation of the dictionary, Moïse
provides a chronology and an introductory essay that gives an
overview of the war and considers some enduring historical debates.
Also included are a names index and a military operations index.
