From Baird Maritime:
A rather bizarre but nevertheless fascinating treatment of the often bizarre Vietnam War. This book follows a platoon of marines recruited in 1967 through their experiences in Vietnam and concludes long afterwards in 2005.
Even more bizarrely, it is written in the third person. Still, it remains personal and provides a very close up view of the experiences of a group of young, relatively uneducated but mostly good hearted Americans suffering in very unexpected ways.
An unusual but effective approach to military history.
