The previous review is great. I don't read my copy. I look through the pictures and let them move me. This is a great photo book. I agree I wish there where more, if looking through this doesn't stir you up, well your'e dead already. Don't get the wrong opinion, I did my time in the army the same as my dad and his dad, but War IS hell, and here is a look at it. Great Book. Steve
The only think I didn't like was the slant.

This book was great in that it had great information on the war, which it often gave from the soldiers' perspective. The photos were excellent, and the book would've been better with even more photos. The only real problem I had with the book (really the whole series) was the left-wing slant it contained. This particular volume devotes entirely too much space to the incident at My Lai. There was much more going on in Vietnam than My Lai, so in that sense it lacked balance. All in all, this was a good book.
