  • "Follows the gradual decay of public consensus over the war and the slow widening of the credibility gap that separated Americans from their leaders. Documents the domestic upheaval caused by the war: waves of antiwar demonstrations, the violence and dissension of the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago, Nixon's and Agnew's attacks on the press, the shooting of students at Kent State, and the soul-searching of Americans in the heartland."
  • "Homefront USA shows that through troubled years of controversy and violence, US casualties mounted, victory remained elusive, and American opinion moved from general approval to general dissatisfaction with the Vietnam War. South Vietnamese leaders believed that America would never let them go down in defeat -- a belief that died as North Vietnamese tanks smashed into Saigon on April 30, 1975, and the long war ended with South Vietnam's surrender, as shown in The end of the tunnel."
