Hailed as one of the finest books to emerge from the Vietnam War,
If I Die in a Combat Zone is a fascinating insight into the lives
of the soldiers caught in the conflict. First published in 1973,
this intensely personal novel about one foot soldier's tour of duty
in Vietnam established Tim O'Brien's reputation as the outstanding
chronicler of the Vietnam experience for a generation of Americans.
From basic training to the front line and back again, he takes the
reader on an unforgettable journey - walking the minefields of My
Lai, fighting the heat and the snipers in an alien land, crawling
into the ghostly tunnels - as he explores the ambiguities of
manhood and morality in a war no one believes in.
