The Twenty-first volume Is an overview of the history so far in the series, recapping the final American involvement in Vietnam. The bombing campaign, the negotiations for peace in Paris and the agreement to end American involvement. Essentially giving the North everything they had originally asked for except the removal of the South's President from office, It does mention Nixon's two trips, one to Moscow and the other to Beijing and improved relations with the two superpowers as the impetus to get out of the south. The South views the agreement between the North and the USA as it's death warrant. Russia with the agreement in place, resumes the military shipments to the north which were unable to get through during the Christmas bombing campaign. (many view this as one of the secret agreements between Russia and the US as a way to force the North to the bargaining table although there is no evidence of any such agreement)
