Americans grew
critical of the war because the Viet Cong were viewed as remaining strong.
The North Vietnamese Army together with the Vietcong launched a massive offensive
on South Vietnam during the holiday of Tet.
Fighting erupted on various fronts including the capital of Saigon. Even the U.S. Embassy breached by the
enemy. Though the Communists were driven
out and suffered massive casualties, American public opinion turned against the
war and it resulted into the withdrawal of U.S. troops from South Vietnam. This led the North to conquer the South
ending in a unified Vietnam under Communist rule for decades.

Answer:
(i) First, it is important to remember the context. America was in the midst of a bloody civil war. Union troops had only recently defeated Confederate troops at the Battle of Gettysburg. It was a the turning point in the war. The stated purpose of Lincoln’s speech was to dedicate a plot of land that would become Soldier’s National Cemetery. However, Lincoln realized that he also had to inspire the people to continue the fight.
Below is the text of the Gettysburg Address, interspersed with my thoughts on what made it so memorable.
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
“Four score and seven” is much more poetic, much more elegant, much more noble than “Eighty-seven”. The United States had won its freedom from Britain 87 years earlier, embarking on the “Great Experiment”.
(ii) The Emancipation Proclamation and Thirteenth Amendment brought about by the Civil War were important milestones in the long process of ending legal slavery in the United States. This essay describes the development of those documents through various drafts by Lincoln and others and shows both the evolution of Abraham Lincoln’s thinking and his efforts to operate within the constitutional boundaries of the presidency.
