    The Vietnam War had plagued the United States for four presidents and driven one from office, deeply dividing the country since the Civil War. While the war was ending, most Americans saw it as a tragic mistake. The toll was heaviest at home through wounds to the national spirit. In contrast to other wars, it produced no famous victories, heroes, or patriotic songs. As a result, the United States felt too exhausted and wary to celebrate the 1973 peace agreement that ended the war.

    Name : _________________________________________ 16th November, 2023.

    “ ……… The Nation began at last to extricate itself from a quicksand war that had plagued four presidents
    and driven one from office, that had sundered the country more deeply than any event since the Civil War,
    that in the end came to be seen by a great majority of Americans as having been a tragic mistake. ….. But its
    more grievous toll was paid at home.. a wound to the spirit so sore that news of peace stirred only the relief
    that comes with an end to pain. A war that produced no famous victories, no national heroes and no strong
    patriotic songs, produced no memorable armistice day celebrations either. America was too exhausted by the
    war and too chary of peace to celebrate. Reaction to the agreement of January 1973 in the influential
    American news magazine Newsweek, 5 February 1973.
