Title: Tom Wolfe in Vietnam?
Review: Cool, coolness, and the countenance to do it. If you like Hunter S. Thompson's 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' or any of Tom Wolfe's early work, e.g. 'The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test', this is your book describing the experience that affected an entire American generation. Herr's work on Vietnam is seminal. As the co-writer of screenplays for both Coppola's ' Apocalypse Now' and Kubrick's 'Full Metal Jacket', Herr provides the 'real deal' from the trenches of the Vietnam experience. Not being a participant but rather a correspondent during the Vietnam War, he provides an objective, accurate and colorful account of the US involvment in Vietnam and more importantly a glance at the true psyche of the American warrior in Southeast Asia.
