This book is the most detailed and accurate account of the movement against the war in Vietnam in the U.S. which has been written. A particular strength of the book is that it places the war and the movement against it within an international context. The author's attention to fact and detail (the book is well footnoted) recreates the mood and the political battles of the movement's conferences and debates. This book is a good starting place for a person who knew nothing about the anti-war movement or the 60s and early 70s. It is a particularly useful book for those looking to learn how a powerful political movement can be built.
