About this ebook
Vietnam War enemies find reconciliation in this “sterling sequel” to the #1 New York Times–bestselling memoir We Were Soldiers Once . . . and Young (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
In their classic memoir, Lt. Gen. Harold Moore and journalist Joseph L. Galloway brought to life one of the most pivotal and heartbreaking battles of the Vietnam War. Now the co-authors bring readers up to date on the cadre of soldiers introduced in their first book.
Returning to Vietnam’s Ia Drang Valley more than four decades after the battle, Moore and Galloway renew their relationships with ten American veterans of the fabled conflict—and with former adversaries—exploring how the war changed them all, as well as their two countries. We Are Soldiers Still is an emotional journey back to hallowed ground, putting a human face on warfare as the authors reflect on war’s devastating cost.
The book includes an Introduction by Gen H. Norman Schwarzkopf.
