This research guide supports the study of the Vietnam War Era, and the 2009 First-Year Experience Course and its primary text, Tim O'Brien's THE THINGS THEY CARRIED.
Welcome to the Houghton Memorial Library (HuntingdonCollege) LibGuide for the Vietnam War Era. This guide was initially created to support the First-Year Experience course for fall 2009 and its use of Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried, the primary text for the course. This LibGuide, however, can direct you in much broader and deeper research into both the Vietnam War (or Conflict, as it is often called) as well as this broader era in American history – what occurred politically, psychologically, socially, artistically … and the long-term impact of the 1960s and 70s.
