FREE: In the Shadow of the Wall: An Anthology of Vietnam Stories That Might Have Been

The listing, In the Shadow of the Wall: An Anthology of Vietnam Stories That Might Have Been has ended.

It was a war that tore America apart. When it ended, more than fifty-eight thousand of our young men and women were dead, killed defending a country most people had never known existed. Years later, this nation still bears the scars of that terrible war, but the men and women who fought to uphold traditional American ideals have not been forgotten. In 1982 the Vietnam War Memorial was dedicated to those who gave their lives in the defense of freedom. The black marble wall, inscribed with the names of every serviceman and woman who died in Vietnam, is our most poignant reminder of the sacrifice made by the 1.2 million veterans of that war, a sacrifice that the survivors still live with to this day. In the Shadow of the Wall is an all-original anthology of fictional stories by some of the best writers of the Vietnam generation. In many instances, these are the same people who experienced firsthand the surreal experience that was Vietnam, both there and at home.
