Book Synopsis
How does a nation come to terms with losing a war-especially an overseas war whose purpose is fervently contested? This is a study of the competing and intertwined narratives of the Indochina War. It analyzes the layers of French remembrance, focusing on state-sponsored commemoration, veterans' associations, and special-interest groups.
