Another title to watch for is The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara , a documentary by Errol Morris (Thin Blue Line ). This was shown theatrically last year and one may hope that a DVD release will not be far off. Said to be rather sympathetic to McNamara.
In other media, be sure to check out Taking Charge: The Johnson White House Tapes 1963-1964 by Michael R. Beschloss. There are abridged cassette & CD audio versions available. I would never have believed the anguish in LBJ's voice over Tonkin Gulf incident, if I hadn't heard it on these tapes.
