1) Hardcover Book Slow Walk in a Sad Rain: The Catch-22 of Vietnam by Alexander Books. This story is very exciting in the sense it´s as if a relative or friend were telling you a story. And war stories are always cool. It is an embellished truth, to make the event(s) more exciting. I know when ever I recall a story, I make it funnier or more dramatic then what took place, who hasn´t? A slow walk in the sad rain is written very smartly, with a quick pace. There´s a good story with great characters. I loved it because it´s original, and I have yet to read anything like it.¤ 2) Hardcover Book Slow Walk in a Sad Rain: The Catch-22 of Vietnam by Alexander Books. This book is very intense, moving and offers an insight to how war is perceived by those induring the events first hand. I was pulled into the book by both it´s writing and subject matter.¤ 3) Hardcover Book Slow Walk in a Sad Rain: The Catch-22 of Vietnam by Alexander Books. The book starts out fast and never slows down. It captures your attention with the all too real descriptions of the men in a US Army Special Forces detachment at a firebase in VietNam. The book pulls every emotion out of you from crying over the loss of a trooper to laughing with tears rolling down your cheeks at the attempts to get rid of an elephant carcass left over after a firefight with the NVA. The only problem I have with this book is the over the top tales of American´s having to hijack a helo in order to get out of an area where they found the CIA to be running drugs. Still I highly recommend this book to anyone who has a desire to know the real emotions of men under fire and how very different people come together to form a tight knit family of sorts.¤ 4) Hardcover Book Slow Walk in a Sad Rain: The Catch-22 of Vietnam by Alexander Books. Hailed as the Catch-22 of the Vietnam war, it?s the poignant, darkly comic debut novel that established John P. McAfee, former Special Forces officer and combat veteran, as an extraordinary new voice in wartime fiction.¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
