Description
When Michael Herr went to Vietnam in 1967 he was virtually unknown as a writer. But with "Dispatches" he brought us a terrifying account of what it was like to fight in, and survive, the war in Vietnam. These are his journals, written with immediacy and sympathy of the facades and falsities that surround him. He sums up the colossal waste of war, while keeping hold of the real people, places and events at the heart of it.
