This book illuminates the crucial role the Vietnam War played in influencing gender roles in America. Heather Stur examines the ways in which ideas about masculinity shaped the American GI experience in Vietnam and, ultimately, how some American men and women returned from Vietnam to challenge home front gender norms.
