The soundest of minds are ruled by the heart, and without love even the greatest minds wither and die before the bodies that host them. Yet, absent hate, there is no human contrast to give love its greatness.So, join me as I tell you of love and hate woven into a single story forged upon the hot crucible of war, where both love and hate reach a height and intensity not otherwise achievable.This will be a story unlike any you have ever read. It will charm, frighten, thrill, amuse, embolden and move you, and these are wonderful things to experience, for indeed it is these emotions, these stirrings of our hearts that we seek in a story, even more than we seek learning.Vietnam is only the center portion of the stage upon which my story of remarkable love plays out, of course. Love stories are eternal, and, if they re good, then their venue, wherever, is but the worn, smooth wood of the stage floor upon which the characters dance and laugh, sigh and cry, love and fight, live and die. My story has passion and love for women readers, heroism and the dark adventure of war for men, and yet I ll tell you of a heroic woman soldier and I ll tell you of deeply loving men.I know all these people, you see, for I am the least of them.
