Description of the Course: This course is intended to introduce you to the ways that historians learn, know, and think. We will explore how to read, understand, and critique books and articles written by historians, and we will also begin to learn how to conduct historical research and construct arguments based on that research. We will read about history and do history in this class. The case study for this course is the Vietnam War. Using a variety of historical documents/sources (scholarly writings, fictional accounts, memoirs, tracts, speeches, films, and music), we will learn the history of the war and explore the different ways in which historians interpreted these events
