About the book

The Vietnam War cut deeply into the lives of an entire generation of Americans. It left an indelible mark on those who took part in it and spawned an antiwar movement more popular and passionate than any other in U.S. history. In all that has been written about the war up until now - about the policies that drove it, the experiences of the American soldiers who fought it, and the dreams of those who opposed it - rarely do the worlds of the Vietnam veteran and the antiwar demonstrator come together. Yet in a small but articulate organization known as Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW), the two made common cause. Winter Soldiers recovers this moving chapter in the history of the Vietnam War era. Bringing together the voices of more than thirty former and current members of the VVAW, oral historian Richard Stacewicz offers an eloquent account of the impact of the war on the lives of individuals and the nation.
