Homework Assignment on Young, _The Vietnam Wars_, Chs. 1 & 2

     Read chapters one and two of Young's book carefully.

     Your writing assignment is on the second half of Chapter Two. 

     Reread, carefully, the account on pp. 29-36 of France's "Vietnam
War," from 1946 to 1954 (in effect, just as long as the U.S.'s
"Vietnam War"). 

     Pick two specific passages in these pages that seem especially
significant to you, and especially helpful in understanding the U.S.
war later on.

     Write about 300 words, and email your assignment to your group
