First, the reader is introduced to a young, ingenuous soldier as he slowly and inexorably becomes hardened by the Vietnam War, through his raw, first-hand accounts of battles fought all across Vietnam, in the war's bloodiest year - - 1968. Then, many decades later, the reader meets the insightful, sensitive veteran he had become, through his intense poems about those same battlefields. Riveting and poignant, this book is a rare glimpse into the psyche of a Vietnam veteran, past and present. A deeply personal and compelling story, that you will not forget.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRick St John --- story-teller, poet and historian --- has authored a wide range of creative works, from light-hearted, children's stories to poetry of the Vietnam War.
