Sherman's March and Vietnam
Sherman's March and Vietnam
By James Reston, Jr.
Macmillan, 1985, 323 pp

An eloquent and unconventional book-part journalism, part history-and throughout a lament against war waged without discrimination or proportionality, a phenomenon which ties Sherman in Georgia to free-fire zones in Vietnam. This is an indictment of leaders and of society as a whole, not of the soldiers of either war.
