Vietnam Journal

Written and illustrated by veteran Don Lomax, here is the Vietnam War told in an extraordinary graphic novel. The stories may be fiction, but their intensity and emotional resonance point to social and personal truths that go beyond mere facts. The troops in Vietnam call war correspondent Scott Neithammer "Journal." His editors sent him to Southeast Asia to write what was happening in South Vietnam. But Neithammer discovers quickly that the real story about the Vietnam War was not at division or battalion headquarters. It was in the bush with soldiers who live with the slime, sthe stink, the constant fear and frustration of fighting a war that "the powers that be" would not let them win.Lomax, Don is the author of 'Vietnam Journal', published 2003 under ISBN 9780743458948 and ISBN 074345894X.
