This book provides an overview of contested issues and interpretations in Vietnam scholarship, a mini-encyclopedia and chronology of key events, annotated guides to resources (including films, documentaries, and websites), and excerpts from historical documents and statistical data.

This historical dictionary includes hundreds of entries on significant persons (military and political), places, events, armed units, battles and lesser engagements, and weapons. And for those seeking further information, an extensive bibliography is included.

This encyclopedia contains three types of articles: brief, dictionary-like entries for easy reference to personalities and military units; longer articles on major figures; and extended essays that describe and interpret major themes including The Land and the People of Vietnam.

The largest and most comprehensive study to date of one of the longest and most divisive conflicts in U.S. history. Over 900 A-Z entries with extensive cross references after each entry. Biographies of key Vietnamese and American participants. 200 primary source documents. 150 illustrations and 22 maps.
