War Torn The Personal Experiences of Women Reporters in the Vietnam War

In this acclaimed book, nine women write about their deeply personal experiences as young reporters who lived, worked, and loved surrounded by war. Their stories span a decade of America's involvement in Vietnam, from the earliest days of the conflict until the last U.S. helicopters left Saigon in 1975. They lived at full tilt, making an impact on all the people around them, from the orphan children in the street to their fellow journalists to the soldiers they lived with in the field. These accounts not only introduce a remarkable group of individuals but give an entirely new perspective on the most controversial war in our history. Vietnam changed these women's lives forever. Here they tell about it with all the candor, commitment, and energy that characterized their courageous reporting during the war.Bartimus, Tad is the author of 'War Torn The Personal Experiences of Women Reporters in the Vietnam War', published 2004 under ISBN 9780375757822 and ISBN 0375757821.
