Since the 1960s, and culminating in the Gulf conflict of last year, television has come to play an ever more decisive role in the preparation and planning, as well as in the execution, of war. It is said that the Vietnam war was lost in American living rooms; and more recently, that the Gulf war was won there. In this highly readable new book, Bruce Cumings studies the history of television's coverage of US warmaking since World War II.
