America's Bloody History from Vietnam to the War on TerrorSeries: Bloody History of AmericaBy Kieron Connolly DetailsDetails During the 1960s, America became embroiled in an increasingly unpopular war fighting communism in Vietnam. Antiwar sentiment led to mass youth protests, which occasionally turned deadly. With the Soviet Union breaking up in the late 1980s, the United States was the sole superpower. But it quickly became the target of Islamist terrorism, as 9/11, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the War on Terror came to define the first two decades of the new millennium. At home, violence convulsed Waco, Oklahoma City, and Los Angeles, while gun massacres became a numbingly familiar occurrence. The troubled recent history of the United States is told with great attention to historic detail and with the help of an abundance of primary source materials.Publication Date: 01/01/2018Copyright: 2018Pages: 88Grade Level: 7–12Age Level: 12–17Dewey: 973.92FormatsFormatISBNList PriceDiscount PriceLibrary Bound Book9780766091801$35.93$26.95eBook9780766091764$35.93$26.95 Loading… Other books in Bloody History of America 1 Loading… Loading… eBook: 9780766091764 List Price: $35.93 Discount Price: $26.95 + Add to wish list Library Bound Book: 9780766091801 List Price: $35.93 Discount Price: $26.95 + Add to wish list Please log in Log in or register to create a wish list.
