Description:
Captain Jim Morris went to Vietnam in 1964 as the Executive Officer of a U.S. Army Special Forces A-Team. The team's mission was to advise, train, and direct the military activities of the Montagnards, primitive tribes in the highlands of central Vietnam who had been warring with the Vietnamese for hundreds of years. Together these warriors fought a war of stealth and cunning against the north Vietnamese. Over the course of three tours of duty, Morris rejoined the hill people, and in "War Story" he depicts the joint Green Beret/Montagnard combat operations with the same intensity and sensitivity with which he describes the beauty of the countryside. Not only is "War Story" one of the most authentic portrayals of U.S. Army guerrilla operations in Southeast Asia, it is one of the finest books ever written on of the war in Vietnam.
