The End of Ambition
The United States and the Third World in the Vietnam Era
This was recommended to me by a young scholar in the field, and I see why. Dr. Lawrence's research is impressive. I appreciated the arc of the book. I gathered some useful material for my class lectures, but the bulk was too detailed for my needs as a generalist. Someone who is interested in 1960s US foreign policy beyond (& also connected to) Vietnam (India, Iran, etc) will find this enlightening.
