About This Item
Boston, MA: Beacon Press, 1982. First edition. First printing [stated]. Hardcover. Good condition/Fair. vii, 177 pages. Notes. Bibliography. Index. DJ has some wear, soiling, edge wear, and small edge tears. Walter Capps was professor of religious studies the University of California, Santa Barbara. The author, after tracking the course of Vietnam's influence on American life, institutions, and religious beliefs, probes the splintered mythologies of both left and right. He brilliantly brings together the war's evolution, its devastating effects on our national sense of mission, and the widespread spiritual malaise that followed the truce. An anti-war activist during the 1960s, he later initiated a nationally renowned course titled "Religion and the Impact of Vietnam" in 1979.
