[Vietnam War Literature] Robbins, Christopher.
The Ravens. The Men Who Flew in America's Secret War in Laos.
<p>New York:: Crown 1987. First Printing of the First Edition. A Fine copy in a Fine dust jacket. The Ravens were American forward air-controllers who directed strikes from vulnerable low-flying spotter planes mainly in support of a Meo general named Vang Pao in Laos. "Advised" by the CIA this fierce warlord fought to keep the North Vietnamese out of the strategic Plain of Jars. Robbins Air America conveys the unique flavor of Raven-style combat and also explains how the diplomatic-military dynamics of the clandestine war in Laos fit into the overall American effort in Southeast Asia. The cast of characters is memorable: a swaggering rowdy bunch of mavericks whom their parent service the U.S. Air Force had great difficulty controlling they seemed to get by on sheer cussedness. According to the author they suffered the highest casualty rate of the Indochinese War. Robbins describes the poignant plight of displaced Meo/Hmong tribespeople who have settled uneasily in the United Statesincluding General Paoand their ongoing struggle to "propitiate the alien spirits of America."

[Vietnam War Literature] Herr, Michael.
Dispatches.
<p>London:: Picador 1997. First Printing of the First UK Edition. A Fine tight unread copy in a Fine bright unclipped dust jacket. Michael Herr went to Vietnam in 1967 virtually unknown as a writer but armed with press credentials for Esquire Magazine he quickly rose above the crowd of writers covering the war with his brilliant unorthodox prose. Herr's six extended pieces in this collection capture the war and its participants like no other writer except for Tim O'Brian in his equally masterful "The Things They Carried." Herr was one of the original Gonzo New Journalists in the company of such literary trail-cutters as Hunter S Thompson Tom Wolfe Truman Capote and Gay Talese. Herr when not imbedded on numerous marine and army operations spent many off hours in the company of three other flamboyant correspondents: Tim Page Dana Stone and Sean Flynn Errol Flynn's son. Photographer Page would survive his experience in Vietnam but in 1970 while traveling by motorcycle in Cambodia Flynn and Dana Stone on assignment for Time magazine and CBS News respectively were captured by communist guerrillas at a roadblock on Highway One. They were never heard from again and their remains have never been found. Herr found himself in as much danger as the soldiers he set out to document in a war that was more disillusioning than understandable. He was with the marines during the prolonged siege of Khe Sanh and most effectively captured the hallucinatory madness of the battle. "Dispatches" is as good as war writing gets; Herr puts the reader right where he is so that his experience becomes yours which is about as close as most people would ever want to get to the real thing.</p> Picador, hardcover

[Vietnam War] Shore II, USMC, Captain Moyers S.
The Battle For Khe Sanh.
<p>Washington DC:: U.S. Marine Corps 1969. First Printing of the First Edition. A Very Good Plus copy in illustrated wraps with a small chip missing from the backstrip. No hardcover edition was issued. This is the story of the defenders of Khe Sanh--and the epic 77-day struggle which not only denied the North Vietnamese Army a much needed victory but reaffirmed to the world the intention of the United States to hold the line in Southeast Asia. In addition to having been a contest of men and machines this was the test of a nation's will. As a history this work is not intended to prove any point but rather to record objectively the series of events which came to be called the Battle of Khe Sanh. These events spanned a period from April 1967 to April 1968. Uncommon.</p> U.S. Marine Corps, hardcover

[Civil War; New York]
The Militia Law of the State of New York. 1862
Albany: Weed Parsons and Co 1862. Wraps. Scarce Civil War era pamphlet on the militia law of 1862 during the period in which both northern and southern states had to rely on States' militias to meet their troop requirements.<br /> <br /> At the beginning of the War neither North or South was adequately prepared for war; the total peacetime army consisted of only 16000 men. President Lincoln following the taking of Fort Sumter had to call up 75000 militia men. New York's share of this total was seventeen regiments of 780 men each or 13280 men. <br /> <br /> There was also a shortage of weapons uniforms and trained officers. The States' militia regiments were of uneven quality and none had any combat training. Militia drilling consisted mostly of parade ground marching and the individual units had never drilled together as part of a larger regiment. <br /> <br /> The pamphlet includes an act to provide for the enrollment of the militia.; military forms and instructions Index and "An Act to Enforce the Laws and Preserve Order passed 1845". 8vo 110pp forms.<br /> <br /> Original yellow printed paper wrappers stitch binding.

Vietnam War Literature O'Brien Tim.
The Things They Carried.
<p>Toronto:: McClelland and Stewart 1990. First Printing of the First Canadian Edition. A Fine copy in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. While this collection of stories involving a single platoon in Vietnam is referred to as a work of fiction it is difficult to determine where the line between fact and imagination begins and ends. "The Things They Carried" is considered one of the two best portrayals of the war experience in Vietnam along with Michael Herr's "Dispatches." "Things" is simply a tour-de-force of exquisite writing about the time the place and the men who experienced that particular conflict. If you were going to read only one book dealing with the Vietnam War experience"The Things They Carried" should be that book.</p> McClelland and Stewart, hardcover

Spanish Civil War Vaill. Amanda.
Hotel Florida: Truth Love and Death in the Spanish Civil War.
<p>New York:: Farrar Straus & Giroux 2014. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Near Fine tight copy with a discreet remainder dot in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. Madrid 1936. In a city blasted by a civil war six people meet and find their lives changed forever. Ernest Hemingway his career stalled his marriage sour hopes that this war will give him fresh material and new romance; Martha Gellhorn an ambitious novice journalist hungry for love and experience thinks she will find both with Hemingway in Spain. Robert Capa and Gerda Taro idealistic young photographers based in Paris want to capture history in the making and are inventing modern photojournalism in the process. And Arturo Barea chief of the Spanish government's foreign press office and Ilsa Kulcsar his Austrian deputy are struggling to balance truth-telling with loyalty to their sometimes compromised causea struggle that places both of them in peril. Beginning with the cloak-and-dagger plot that precipitated the first gunshots of the war and moving forward month by month to the end of the conflict. Hotel Florida traces the tangled and disparate wartime destinies of these three couples against the backdrop of a critical moment in history: a moment that called forth both the best and the worst of those caught up in it. In this noir landscape of spies soldiers revolutionaries and artists the shadow line between truth and falsehood sometimes became faint indeedyour friend could be your enemy and honesty could get you or someone else killed.Years later Hemingway would say "It is very dangerous to write the truth in war and the truth is very dangerous to come by." In Hotel Florida from the raw material of unpublished letters and diaries official documents and recovered reels of film the celebrated biographer Amanda Vaill has created a narrative of love and reinvention that is finally a story about truth: finding it telling it and living itwhatever the cost.</p> Farrar, Straus, & Giroux, hardcover

E. K. G. Sixsmith
Eisenhower Military Commanders Ser.
New York NY U.S.A.: Combined Publishing 1998. Because he did not actually command troops in battle Eisenhower has occasionally been underestimated by military writers. The Eisenhower volume in the classic "Military Commanders" series clearly demonstrates that his organization of the Allied effort in Europe owed nothing the the practises followed in World War I and represented a decisive breakthrough in the conduct of war particularly in coalition warfare. Ike was a military manager without equal who also had the ability to inspire confidence and loyalty among his subordinates of all nationalities. Eisenhower is most closely associated with the military principle of "Unity of Command" and his doctrines are more relevant today than ever in the world of coalition armies and high-tec battlefields. General Sixsmith's comprehensive description of Eisenhower's World War II actions makes for particularly interesting comparisons with the lessons forgotten in Vietnam and re-applied in the Persian Gulf.
