Begin with The Vietnam
war and the Tragedy of Containment, an
electronic lecture on the Vietnam War. The lecture
gives a specific historical account of the war, an
historian's interpretation of the facts. After
you've read the lecture, read some of the personal
recollections of the war collected at the sites
listed to the right, and compare ordinary people's
memories of the war with the lecture. Do they
contradict the lecture? Do they give a different
slant on things, or change your mind in any
way?
When you are finished, take this quiz
to test your knowledge of the war for the final
exam.
