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.

London:: Picador,, 1997.. First Printing of the First UK Edition. A Fine tight unread copy in a Fine bright unclipped dust jacket.
