Description :

For decades, the war in Vietnam was the central drama on the stage of Southeast Asia. It was an
intensely publicized war, the first television war that came roaring into the living rooms of
America every night. This video set, narrated by Walter Cronkite, tells the story of that prolonged
conflict as seen through the eyes of CBS News. Dan Rather, Morley Safer and Ed Bradley report the
stories of American courage, failed programs, an elusive enemy and ultimately an end to a tragic
war. It is all graphically shown in these superb CBS documentaries which tell the story of the most
divisive war in American history and its effect on those who fought it.

Running Time: Over 12 Hours Color and B &W

Part 1: The Seeds Of Conflict

From the French defeat at Dien Bien Phu to the Gulf of Tonkin incident, this program chronicles
America's growing entanglement in Vietnam. Watch as the United States becomes mired in an escalating
war for the hearts and minds of the Vietnamese people.
