Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. Gene Thorp (Maps) (illustrator). First edition. First printing [stated]. xvii, 572 pages. Illustrations. Cast of Characters. Notes. Selected Bibliography. Index. David Maraniss (born 1949) is an American journalist and author, currently serving as an associate editor for The Washington Post. The Washington Post assigned Maraniss the job of biographer for their coverage of 2008 presidential candidate Barack Obama. Maraniss and wife Linda live in Washington, D.C. and Madison, Wisconsin. His son, Andrew Maraniss is also an author and has been on the New York Times best-seller list in 2015. Maraniss has written or co-authored numerous books, most of which are biographies of politicians or athletes, and all of which were published by Simon & Schuster. In this Vietnam War-era history, journalist David Maraniss reports on two out-of-control events that provide a window into the American experience of those times. On October 17, 1967, a squad of American soldiers was ambushed while on routine patrol, resulting in the loss of over 50 lives. On the next day, in Madison, Wisconsin, a student demonstration against Dow Chemical, the manufacturer of napalm, ended in violence, injuring students and police. Maraniss crafts his portraits of the soldiers in the Black Lions rifle squad with care, especially their leader Clark Welch. In his sections on the University of Wisconsin, he captures the feel of campus life. Maraniss reports on the investigations that followed both, and his writing is supported by his prodigious research into sources not available at the time. Maraniss's book illustrates the sentiment expressed back then that there were, indeed, two fronts to the Vietnam War: the war at home and the war abroad.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. Gene Thorp (Map) (illustrator). x, [4], 575, [3] pages. Illustrations. Abbreviations in Notes. Endnotes. Index. David Emanuel Hoffman is an American writer and journalist, a contributing editor to The Washington Post. He came to Washington D.C. in 1977 to work for the Capitol Hill News Service. In May 1982, he joined The Washington Post and covered the George H. W. Bush presidency. His White House coverage won three national journalism awards. He became Jerusalem bureau chief for The Washington Post in 1992. From 1995 to 2001, he served as Moscow bureau chief, and later as foreign editor and assistant managing editor for foreign news. He won the annual Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction in 2010 for his second book, The Dead Hand: The Untold Story of the Cold War Arms Race and its Dangerous Legacy. The Prize citation termed it "a well documented narrative that examines the terrifying doomsday competition between two superpowers and how weapons of mass destruction still imperil humankind." Derived from a Kirkus review: This penetrating look at the history of the Cold War. One of its aspects was the notion that the Soviet military created ?Dead Hand,? a missile system that led to further assumptions that the civilian leadership and military command system were dead and gone. The Soviet brass, writes Washington Post reporter Hoffman, tried to push through a computer-loop design by which the machines would decide when to unleash hell without human intervention. One of the many virtues of Hoffman?s book is that it depicts not just the death-tainted hand of the military-industrial complex in the United States, but also in the Soviet Union, where supposed strongmen like Leonid Brezhnev and Yuri Andropov had considerable trouble keeping the warmongers under control. Indeed, readers will realize how lucky we are to have escaped being destroyed at their hands. A compendium of discomfiting, implication-heavy facts, of particular interest to students of geopolitics.
