Long Before The Next War [Hardcover]

If Jack Kerouac went to Vietnam, this is the book he would have written--created without any filter--with all the vividness, craziness, bloodiness, harshness, kindness, sensuousness and godliness that is war.

Landing Zone Zebra, Planet Earth, 1968. John Coltrane and John Lennon. Peace talks in Paris and nightly mortar attacks. Secret patrols to Laos and best friends flown home in body bags. The chaos that passes for life in a guerrilla war. This is Long Before the Next War. Part poetry. Part prose. And all great read.
