Heartbreaking and wonderful. Partridge combines a broad social-political overview of the Vietnam War with personal interviews from 8 survivors. Rather than ending with the withdrawal of American troops, she ends years later with the dedication of the Vietnam War Memorial. There’s so much here that I am hearing for the first time. Seeing how Vietnam always seems to be glossed over in history class, I want to hand this to everyone.
