"Can anyone remember a public public with the courage to confess problem and explain where he and his country travelled wrong? This is what Robert McNamara does indeed in this courageous, honest, honorable, and totally compelling booklet."—Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.
Written twenty years after the end of the Vietnam Battle, former Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara's controversial memoir answers the lingering questions that surround this devastating event in American background.
With unprecedented candor and attracting on an abundance of recently declassified documents, McNamara reveals the fatal misassumptions behind our engagement in Vietnam. Keenly detected and considerably written, In Retrospect possesses the urgency and poignancy that symbol the most effective histories—and the unsparing candor that is the trademark of the greatest personal memoirs.
Includes a preface written by McNamara for the paperback model.
