Despite President Ford's amnesty and President Carter's pardon, some of these exiles never returned. This book, which focuses upon those who remained in Canada, offers a resister's eye view of the most traumatic war in American history. Dickerson blends resister interviews with an account of the historical events that served as watersheds for these young Americans. 4aVietnamese Conflict, 1961-1975 4aEmigration and Immigration 4aProtest Movements 4aAmericans 4aDraft Resisters 4aConscientious Objectors 4aVietnam War, 1961-1975 4aVietnam War, 1961-1975, Protest Movements
