This book is the sequel to the first Vietnam memoir by Harold G. Moore, We Were Soldiers Once...And Young. In this book, the author and his friend, Joseph Galloway, return to Vietnam to see what changes have taken place in the years since he was there. They meet up with some other veterans and discuss their experiences during their time in the country. They also met with some of their former enemies, also discussing how the conflict had affected lives on that side as well.

This book is less than 300 pages, so if you are interested in a fairly short book about Vietnam, consider this one. I enjoyed both of the memoirs written by this author. I thought the details in which important experiences were described were well done. They provided an accurate amount of horror and were emotionally charged, but also providing some historical context for those who are not terribly familiar with Vietnam. I wish that I would have read the two books closer together, so if you have not read either, my suggestion would be to read them both at once.
