Excellent look South Vietnam on eve of American withdrawal

This book is a vivid and candid picture of Vietnam only days before the American troops were supposed to withdraw. If you are interested in Vietnam and the aftermath of the war, this is the book for you. James Jones does a wonderful job of showing the leadership and humanity of the soldiers and commanders in South Vietnam. Filled with great descriptions of Hue, Saigon, Dak Pek, Pleiku, and other areas. This is a very fast read and one that will help aid in understanding of the mindset of the American men who fought in America's most controversial war.
