"Tom Wells' book is the War and Peace of the movement to end American involvement in Vietnam. Like Tolstoy, he offers a massive cast of characters and a plethora of detail, but also a coherent theme. For Wells, it is that the uprising of young American citizens succeeded in changing our Vietnam policy beyond their own recognition. . . . The anti-Vietnam war campaign proved conclusively that foreign policy is too important to be left to the experts."--Paul C. Warnke, Assistant Secretary of Defense, Johnson Administration "This is our own history at its best, with original insights and a creative new perspective on events we only thought we knew. In the 1960s America confronted herself as never before, or after, and The War Within is a compelling portrait of that fateful meeting."--Roger MorrisWells, Tom is the author of 'War within: America's Battle over Vietnam - Tom Wells - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780520083677 and ISBN 0520083679.
