In a riveting sequel to his celebrated Westmoreland's War, Daddis offers a bold new interpretation of America's first lost war. Upending myths of a "better war" that led to victory in Vietnam, Withdrawal is required reading for anyone hoping to understand the final years of American intervention in Southeast Asia.
Withdrawal brilliantly dismantles old and pervasive myths about the final phases of America's lost war in Vietnam. The book affirms Greg Daddis' stature as one today's most original and insightful historians of the war and deserves a broad readership among not just students of history but also policymakers and military officers.
