This is not just a book about loss in war, but is also about loss to family, and how in the end family's pay the greatest price for all our wars. The story of this young man, and how rapidly he matured into a leader in battle, yet retained his humanity, will be moving to anyone whether they were alive during the Vietnam War or not. The legacy of that war is still with us, as it will be for decades--what it did to our nation, what it did to Vietnam, the things we failed to learn. This book is an essential contribution to the documenting, and understanding, of that time--but with a personal touch that Karen Epp expertly renders without sentimentality, yet with considerable knowledge and warmth.
