[quote=Anonymous]This is a really good one about Vietnam - "Dereliction of Duty: Johnson, McNamara, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Lies That Led to Vietnam".  The author himself is really interesting as well.

Also, this one - McNamara owns up to some of his mistakes as Sec of Defense during Vietnam

Finally maybe "Kennedy & Nixon: The Rivalry that Shaped Postwar America" by Chris Matthews.  Even though it's not about Vietnam directly, It does cover the time period and how both presidents dealt with the war.  Surprisingly enough, as a writer Chris Matthews is pretty balanced
