And a Hard Rain Fell A Gi's True Story of the War in Vietnam

"I didn't set out to write a book. It was 1982, fourteen years after I had last set foot in Vietnam, and thirteen years after I returned to The World. The nightmares were more frequent. I needed to get Vietnam out into the open, but I couldn't talk about it. Not after all those years." John Ketwig's powerful memoir of the war in Vietnam is a visceral account of a young man's odyssey from the country roads of upstate New York to the jungles of Vietnam. It is a contrast of cultural upheavals and the harsh realities of war, from rock 'n' roll philosophy and Beatlemania to the sight of a child burned by a napalm bomb....and a hard rain fell is the unforgettable story of a veteran's rage against his country, with a message as relevant today as it was twenty years ago.Ketwig, John is the author of 'And a Hard Rain Fell A Gi's True Story of the War in Vietnam', published 2002 under ISBN 9781570719875 and ISBN 157071987X.
