Schemel Forum World Affairs Luncheon Lecture
JFK, LBJ and the Paradox of Vietnam
In the 1960s US presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson made Vietnam into an American War, despite their having deep misgivings about the struggle. Harvard historian and Pulitzer Prize winning author of Embers of War considers anew one of the most consequential and trying chapters in American history.
