Revelation: A Novel of the Vietnam WariUniverse, 14 февр. 2005 г. - Всего страниц: 244 "Ricks captures Vietnam's dust, heat, and 'fog of war' as only someone who was there can do. His book took me back in a heartbeat: It was so vivid I could almost SMELL it again!"-Ross Rainwater, LTC, Aviation, USA (Retired), 1st Cavalry Division, 197071 Set in the dust, heat, forests and mud of Vietnam's Central Highlands, Revelation is a story drawn from actual historical events. The conflict, the action is real. When Army Captain John Davis gets the chance at his own command during the latter days of the Vietnam War, he eagerly accepts the job. Unknown to him, the men of his new unit murdered the officer who had the command before him. These killers have not been identified or caught. Davis' new boss never even told him of the crime. Dealing with internal unit conflicts, external bureaucratic indifference and his own fears and weaknesses, he must still carry on with the assigned mission. In a series of dangerous situations, Davis is at risk, but are these the hazards of war or more murder attempts? Will he ever be reunited with the woman he loves? |
