Trafford Publishing, 2014. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 6x0x9. Brand new, direct from author. Fine. 2014 Hard Cover. xv, 292 pp. 8vo. Vietnam and Beyond is a collection of wartime letters written home by Jim Markson from March 1967 to March 1968. Jim carried sadness and boxed-up memories from Vietnam. Perhaps, if it were not for the general divided and oppositional public opinion of the Vietnam War at that time, the soldiers returning home might have been able to open up and begin the healing process. Instead, those soldiers returning from Vietnam were afraid to tell their story. These fears bound each soldier to the other. We are very proud to embrace all veterans and include stories of veterans of all wars, including WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan to show the similarities of war and the soldier from one generation to another.

"In 1917, as the United States joined the fight against Germany and the Central Powers, the American Army had little to offer in terms of equipment or expertise. But by the fall of 1918, and the war's climactic battles, the American doughboys possessed more firepower than any other army on the battlefield. In this collection of more than 200 wartime images, photo collector Tom Laemlein examines the weapons of the Americans in the trenches, the guns that provided the catalyst for ultimate victory in the Great War.

It is the 1960s, and Udayan--charismatic and impulsive--finds himself drawn to the Naxalite movement, a rebellion waged to eradicate inequity and poverty: he will give everything, risk all, for what he believes. Subhash, the dutiful son, does…
