Title: The lion heart
First published: 1969
Description: "The time is late 1966 and early 1967, and the central character is Jack Lane. An American of 35, Lane volunteers out of warm, if vaguely defined, patriotism to serve as a Special Forces Officer, leaving behind him in Connecticut a thriving real-estate business, a wife and two young sons. ... Though in no sense a comment upon United States policy, The Lion Heart nonetheless exposes in strong narrative the corruption - in some instances, the beastialities - of the Vietnamese war and, by extension, of all wars in our time." From the bookjacket.
