The Tet Offensive is widely considered to be a turning point of the Vietnam War. From that point forward, although the campaigns included in the Offensive were crushing defeats for the Communist forces, the U.S. support for the war dwindled. Although defeated militarily, the Communists did effectively manipulate media influence, propaganda, and popular opinion to sway the outcome of their military objectives. Through primary sources, collected together for the first time, William Thomas Allison explores the Tet Offensive through political, military, and public lenses, including the Vietnamese perspective, to give students and scholars a well-rounded view of the events.
