Everyman in Vietnam is an accessible and multi-dimensional way to convey an understanding of the nature and enduring significance of the Vietnam conflict for students and a broader reading public. Its vivid, intimate, and accessible account of an ordinary American soldier in Vietnam offers aunique glimpse into the complexities and contradictions of the American intervention in Vietnam. The focus on an individual soldier - Jimmy Gilch - and the milieu from which he came, along with the novel use of his cache of letters written home, make this a unique contribution to the historicalliterature on the Vietnam War. The movement back and forth between the larger history of the war and the experiences of Jimmy Gilch fighting in a very particular place at a particular time will give readers a sense of the concrete nature of the war in Vietnam that is often absent in more generaltreatments | Everyman in Vietnam: A Soldier's Journey into the Quagmire by Michael Adas, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
