I Am the War

Más información sobre el libro

I Am the War began as a collection of Vietnam memories as told by a Marine combat photographer. After 17 years, it was the first chance he'd ever had to talk to anyone about his war. As he spoke, two wars the remembered tour in Vietnam and a more horrible, unremembered war that boiled up from his subconscious. This book records his journey down the dark twisting trails of Vietnam's jungles and of his own mind, through combat and catastrophe in Southeast Asia, through delayed stress, jail and madness back home. The book also recounts how remembering can heal a reluctant warrior's tortured soul.
