Review: Another in-depth view of Vietnam.
Rating: 4 out of 5

Although the author states the book is fiction, it encompasses much of his experiences in country thereby making it a very enjoyable reading book. For readers who are not familiar with Vietnam, the story is well thought out and paints a good picture of the country in the late '60s. My only disappointment in the book  was with the misspellings of the Vietnamese words and several locations depicted in Saigon. I felt that the author should have done some research on the spellings of the various Vietnamese titles and units prior to committing them to paper. I spent eight years in Vietnam and am also an author, so I feel qualified to make these remarks. On the whole however, I enjoyed reading the book and would recommend it to others.
