5.0 out of 5 stars
Vietnam memoir by the author of LONG MARCH TO FREEDOM,
By Shamanb "Shamanb" (California) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Dragon Lives Forever: War and Rice in Vietnam's Mekong Delta 1969-1991, and Beyond (Mass Market Paperback)
The dramatic, smart-as-a-tack, compassionate Vietnam War memoir by the man who would, years later, be kidnapped by Colombian guerrillas and write LONG MARCH TO FREEDOM, his own account of his highly publicized captivity and release. Get both books. Hargrove is a warrior who cares about the starving millions, who has risked his life for them and who writes memoirs as gripping as good novels.
