Over as Far as America is Concerned by Christopher Yelonek, M.A., is a scholarly, historical monograph which focuses on the decision, President Gerald R. Ford faced in the latter years of the Vietnam War on whether or not to launch a bombing campaign that would have reintroduced American combat forces into the conflict. By analyzing the American political landscape of the mid-1970s, the situation of the Vietnam War in the post-1968 Tet Offensive period, and the Cold War politics of the 1970s to understand why President Ford chose not to launch a bombing campaign into the Vietnam War. Instead, President Ford made the choice of evacuating as many people as possible in April, 1975 because of the political realities his presidency faced and to garner support for his top priorities of the Ford Administration.
