Twenty-eight young adult novels addressing the Vietnam War, published between 1967 and 1997, are discussed in the context of the current culture war between conservatives and progressives to define American values and interpret American history. Overstreet (English education, U. of Southwestern Louisiana) analyzes the novels in terms of the three primary schools of Vietnam historiography, American cultural war myths, and the specific representation of the participants in the conflict.
