Even as the Vietnam War has become accepted as a meaningful yet bitter episode in American history, its veterans have generally remained anonymous figures. Rectifying this lapse, James Wright recounts their experiences, explaining why these baby boomers went into the military, what they thought of the war, what it was like to serve in "Nam," and how their families processed it all. Based on extensive interviews with participants, James Wright's book contains a powerful narrative of the Battle for Hamburger Hill, while also examining the formidable anti-war movement and the soldiers' often-heartbreaking experiences on the home front.
