With Love Stan: A Soldier's Letters from Vietnam to The World

Review date: 09/30/2007

I teach at a mid-sized school in Stan Ross's hometown of Mt.Pleasant, Iowas. In our school's media center there is a plaque dedicated to Stanley Ross. As timed passed, many students were unaware of this dedication and what an amazing young man Stanley was. Karen Ross Epp's book made this part of our history real. It allowed my students to know and understand how war can tear apart and unite an entire community all at the same time. Stan's letters capture the true Vietnam experience; one in which anyone could understand. This book is truly moving. It changed the way in which I teach my students about Vietnam and the experiences of the brave, young soldiers.
