Johnny Got His Gun: Johnny Cogió Su Fusil (Film Ink Ser.)
by Dalton TrumboThis is no ordinary novel. This is a novel that never takes the easy way out: it is shocking, violent, terrifying, horrible, uncompromising, brutal, remorseless and gruesome...but so is war.

Published in 1939, the book itself has a history, partially described by the author in introductions in 1959 and 1970. A compelling novel about war that is still relevant today, this story is not to be missed. Note: The author does not follow standard American spelling.

The Journal of Patrick Seamus Flaherty: A United States Marine Corps, Khe Sanh, Vietnam, 1968 (My Name is America)
by Ellen Emerson White<P>"This journal is based upon actual events, but all names and certain unit and operational details have been changed, in order to protect the privacy of the Marines who actually served so bravely at Khe Sanh. Although every attempt has been made to present the story as accurately as possible, based upon public records, any resemblance to actual people (other than public figures such as President Johnson) is very much a coincidence. When recounting the actions taken by certain soldiers, students of the Vietnam War may recognize the people they represent. As a result, no identifying details whatsoever are given, when these particular incidents are recounted, based upon after-action reports and other sources. All Americans owe a great debt of thanks to the veterans of the Vietnam War -- and every other war. <P>Includes a history of Vietnam, war timeline, glossary, and related military information." <P>This is the companion book to Where have all the flowers gone? : the diary of Molly MacKenzie Flaherty (Dear America), already on bookshare.
