  1. The Best and the Brightest

    David Halberstam · Discussed · 1 episode

    The Best and the Brightest by David Halberstam is a historical examination of the origins of the Vietnam War and the elite policymakers who steered the United States into the conflict.

    Discussed
    “David Halberstam’s The Best and the Brightest. Why do you find that book so notable? Oh, it was probably the first book I read when I came to the United States in ’74. I find it’s just remarkable how it opened up the US political system.”
