American History 102: 1865 to the Present Stanley K. Schultz, Professor of History William P. Tishler, Producer Student Web Notes WARNING: The "Student Web Notes" are not in any way intended as a replacement for attending or viewing lectures, reading assignments, or attending discussion section. Although we want these web lecture notes to be an improvement on other study guides (and we do believe they are), they must remain nothing more than study guides. Part I: The Reconstruction of American Society, 1865-1917 Lecture 01 Reconstructing the Nation America has been split apart by three major wars: in the 1770's the American Revolution; in the 1970's the Vietnam War; and, in the middle of this period, the Civil War. Each war has dramatically changed the generation engaged in battles as well as the generations that followed. Lecture #01 will examine the repercussions of the Civil War, its effects on the American people, and the agreements and disagreements within the nation over the meanings of "Reconstruction." See Calendar for course outline and lecture topics Lecture 02 The "New South" By the late 1860s, some Southerners were already calling for a more diversified economy cotton was no longer "king." Increasingly there was a move from farm to factory, and many people encouraged industrialization in the South and an increased capital investment in the Southern economy from outside sources. This lecture explores the economic transformation and the racial politics of the "New" South after the Civil War.

Home News Schedule Sponsor ... Links The History of the Vietnam War: Vietnam American History American Women From the Other Side American Involvement 1954-1975: The 21 year-long Vietnam War was the longest in our Nation's history, beginning in 1954 when the Geneva Accords divided the Southeast Asian country into North and South Vietnam. Soon thereafter, the Communist North started a guerrilla war and the Republic of South Vietnam sought assistance from the U.S. with the first Americans dying there in 1954. The "advisory effort" grew rapidly and in 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson ordered a full-scale deployment of U.S. armed forces. Eventually, 2.7 million Americans served in that "limited conventional war" that was never officially declared a WARresulting in uncertainty at home as well as in Vietnamwhile more than 58,215 lost their lives; 80,000 were severely wounded; 220,000 were wounded; and some 2,400 remain missing and unaccounted for! During the war, soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines fought with heroism and determination under some of the most difficult circumstances ever encountered by American military personnel. Tragically, upon their return home, they received virtually no recognition for the service and sacrifice because of the raging domestic controversy over U.S. war policy.

Huey unloading a 1st Cav Blue Team The Vietnam War Internet Project is an educational organization dedicated to providing information and documents about the various Indochina Wars and to the collection and electronic publication on the web of oral histories and memoirs of both those who served in and those who opposed those conflicts. "No 'healing', no apologies, no memorials, nothing can possibly compensate for the damage done and the pain inflicted....The only thing we can possibly do, twenty years too late, is to try and tell the truth." Historian Eric Bergerud (UC Berkeley) wrote the above passage in his second book, "Red Thunder, Tropic Lightning". His first, based on his dissertation, was a scathing indictment of the American war in Vietnam. But as he began to collect oral histories from members of the 25th Infantry Division for "Red Thunder", he began to doubt the accepted "conventional wisdom" regarding US combat troops. The problem, of course, is that there is no one TRUTH about the Indochina Wars. Instead, many different truths coexist and compete. To be sure, there are facts, a myriad of them - the tonnage of bombs dropped by the US during the war, for example. But facts, while useful and necessary, do not lead to understanding without a framework, a matrix, upon which to place them. And there is the rub. In analyzing and making sense of fact, cultural and social reality is constructed. By this process, past events and actions become part of the historical sense of self of a society. In the case of the Indochina Wars, there are many such realities, each with its own truth, each with its own understanding. The sense of self connected with these wars is still very much a contested issue in many of the countries that participated in them.

History, Other or Browse by Subject paper In Stock Standard library edition In Stock Standard Pages from History The Vietnam War A History in Documents MARILYN B. YOUNG, New York University, JOHN J. FITZGERALD, and A. TOM GRUNFELD, Empire State College The Vietnam War tells the story of one of the most divisive episodes in modern American history through primary sources, ranging from government documents, news reports, speeches, popular songs to memoirs, writings by Vietnam veterans (including coauthor John Fitzgerald), and poetry by Vietnamese and Americans on matching themes. The book begins in the 19th century when Vietnam became a French colony, and traces the insidious route by which the United States became involved in a war on the other side of the world. "Comprised of first- and second-hand accounts of American policy in Vietnam during the 1960s. Its primary sources are held together chronologically with narrative. Political cartoons, U.S. government files, Vietnamese iconography, and song lyrics by Bruce Springsteen are among the book's most compelling and evocative elements." Hampshire Gazette "Provides historials and students of history with a wealth of first-hand information missing from past conflicts. Those "primary sources"...provide the basis for a different way to teach history - allowing students to decide the meaning."

VIETNAM: THE IMPOSSIBLE WAR Against the celebrated and glorious backdrop of American history, the Vietnam War stands ghastly out of place. The war was an exercise in economic, military, and political futility. The greatest tragedy of the Vietnam War, however, stems from the unnecessary deaths of 58 000 young American boys and the installment of terror, mistrust, and sorrow in those who found a way to survive in an inferno where the laws of man were obsolete. In all, I dedicate this page to the Vietnam veterans who saw more destruction in 365 days than mankind should ever see.

The filmmakers were allowed to shoot preparations for a state dinner hosted by President and Mrs. Clinton for Boris and Mrs. Yeltsin from the setting of 1,500 pieces of White House china to the intricate choreographing of the meal service, as well as security checks and final briefings for the President.
