Though the words, Cold War, refer to a period of specific international tension it is also true that the wars, conflicts and armed disputes of the period were most often influenced by, and even created because of, the existence of a 'cold war' environment - the Cold War was, in many ways, the Third World War. This extensive and authoritative volume presents all the major wars of the period - Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf, etc., the uprisings and revolts in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, etc, and even the skirmishes, such as the Cuba Missile Crisis, in a form that is suitable both for reading and for reference. Indeed, it is a book that meets a major need for historians, students and professionals working in the field of international current affairs and modern history.

The year is 1970¿It is a turbulent, often violent, yet idealistic time. Over a third of a million American young people are serving in Vietnam. The various segments that compose American society peer distrustfully at one another across barricades drawn by age, race, social class, and wealth. One of the highest of these barricades is that drawn by age. A military incursion into Cambodia on April 30 touches off violent riots throughout the nation that eventually force over five hundred institutions of higher learning to shut down early for the summer.
