Why read it?
1 author picked To Hear Silence as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a memoir that does not read like a memoir. It brings to the reader the harsh reality of war and a personal perspective on how one perceives war, told without shame or bravado. The reader is brought full circle from the fighting and destruction in 1967-68 to standing on the same battlefields some 45 years later, in peace.
From William's list on the Vietnam War from a Marone who served there.
