1.The Things They CarriedThe Things They Carried
from Broadway
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
This horrifying and gut-wrenching book makes one really think about war and all the terrors and nightmares that go along with it. So many young lives were ruined or ended as a result and we can never go back and change that. I know many people that served in Vietnam and their stories are powerful as... more info

2.The Last Campaign: Robert F. Kennedy and 82 Days That Inspired AmericaThe Last Campaign: Robert F. Kennedy and 82 Days That Inspired America
from Henry Holt and Co.
Price: $16.50

Customer Review:

If I were rating Bobby, there aren't enough stars in the heavens to measure how I feel about him. I was 17 when he died, and I don't think I have taken politics seriously since. Even the left of center Democrats I usually agree with on policy seem pale, scheming elitists compared to Bobby. So... more info

from Clarion Books
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
On the suggestion of a friend who has excellent taste in books, I bought this book for my eleven year old son, who's appetite for books exceeds what I can keep up with! It was so gripping that he sat up until two in the morning to finish the book. (I can sympathize; I've done that!) His review (five... more info

from Bantam
Price: $7.99

Customer Review:
Fields of Fire is not just an excellent novel about Vietnam. It's an excellent novel. The characters are believable and complex; the scenes are replete with meaning and context without being overbearing, and the story line keeps one's attention while it teaches some lessons about life and... more info

7.Tree of Smoke: A NovelTree of Smoke: A Novel
from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Price: $17.82

Customer Review:
The initial pages of this book sucked me in. The scene with the monkey dying in the soldiers hands is brilliant. Unfortunately, passages of the same or similar qualities are few and far between. For me, there were too many lengthy periods where nothing much seemed to be going on. These would be... more info

9.Learning to Eat Soup with a Knife: Counterinsurgency Lessons from Malaya and VietnamLearning to Eat Soup with a Knife: Counterinsurgency Lessons from Malaya and Vietnam
from University Of Chicago Press
Price: $11.56

Customer Review:
In his book The Two Vietnams, the late Bernard Fall warned that any comparisons between British victories in Malaya and the situation in Vietnam in 1960's was nothing but a dangerous self-delusion, or worse, an oversimplification of the whole problem. Mr. Nagl should have followed that advice before... more info

10.Soldiers of Reason: The RAND Corporation and the Rise of the American EmpireSoldiers of Reason: The RAND Corporation and the Rise of the American Empire
from Harcourt
Price: $17.82

Customer Review:
A frustrating book. RAND clearly deserves a history and a cold war post mortem but this book isn't it. It reads a bit like a summary of interviews strung together with a muddled view of history and context. One would have hoped the text could have sorted through the hype, spin and fact of who this... more info
