From firebases to rice paddies, from Saigon streets to jungle ambushes-Sean Kelly reports from the front lines of a divided nation at war.
A syndicated columnist caught between worlds, Sean Kelly searches for the human stories behind the headlines of Vietnam. His weekly dispatches reveal what the evening news can't show: the quiet heroism of medics rushing toward danger, the camaraderie forged in impossible conditions, and the brutal choices soldiers face daily.
When Sean meets Carmen, a mysterious woman working for the State Department, he finds something he never expected in the chaos of war-love. But in a country where danger lurks in both jungle firefights and Saigon back alleys, nothing is certain, not even tomorrow.
As Sean witnesses the complexities of combat, from helicopter insertions to tank assaults, from river patrols to midnight ambushes, he struggles to convey the truth to readers back home. Each column brings him closer to understanding the conflict-and closer to the realization that some stories might cost him everything.
In this powerful second installment, award-winning author Paul Sinor draws on his own experiences to craft an unforgettable journey through America's most controversial war, seen through the eyes of those who lived it.
