Book excerpt: No one in Vietnam had to tell door gunner and gunship crew chief Al Sever that the odds didn’t look good. He volunteered for the job well aware that hanging out of slow-moving choppers over hot LZs blazing with enemy fire was not conducive to a long life. But that wasn’t going to stop Specialist Sever. From Da Nang to Cu Chi and the Mekong Delta, Sever spent thirty-one months in Vietnam, fighting in eleven of the war’s sixteen campaigns. Every morning when his gunship lifted off, often to the clacking and muzzle flashes of AK-47s hidden in the dawn fog, Sever knew he might not return. This raw, gritty, gut-wrenching firsthand account of American boys fighting and dying in Vietnam captures all the hell, horror, and heroism of that tragic war.

Book excerpt: aXin Loia is a term in the Vietnamese language meaning, aIam sorry.a It has now been three decades since the Vietnam War and a gradual thaw in the relationship between the United States and the former enemy. Unfortunately, the economy of the Asian nation has failed to progress. Although the natural resources are more than sufficient to provide a bustling economy, the know-how is severely lacking. As a last resort, the communist government turns to the Americans with a request for funds to save the nation. Many veterans agree that any assistance to that country should never occur. However, it is considered good policy to reply favorably to the Vietnamese. All is well until the discovery of thirty American POWs being secretly hidden from the world. The clandestine operation to free these men and bring justice to the communists is sure to provide suspense and raise the emotions of the reader of this thrilling adventure story.

Book excerpt: "Vietnam Zippos showcases the engravings made by U.S. soldiers on their lighters during the height of the conflict, from 1965 to 1973. Sherry Buchanan, through the collection of American artist Bradford Edwards, tells the story of how the humble Zippo became a talisman and companion for American GIs during their tours of duty. The engravings gathered in this illustrated volume run the full emotional spectrum with both sardonic reflections - "I love the f***ing Army and the Army loves f***ing me" - and poignant maxims - "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace." Part pop art and part military artifact, they capture the large moods of the sixties and the darkest days of Vietnam - all through the world of the tiny Zippo."--BOOK JACKET.
