Hardback. Zustand: Fair. A remarkable memoir of small-unit leadership and the coming of age of a young soldier in combat in Vietnam.' Using a lean style and a sense of pacing drawn from the tautest of novels, McDonough has produced a gripping account of his first command, a U.S. platoon taking part in the 'strategic hamlet' program. . . .

Zustand: Fair. If not for a stint in reform school, young Louis Armstrong might never have become a musician.

But it was Louis Armstrong's own passion and genius that pushed jazz into new and exciting realms with his amazing, improvisational trumpet playing. His seventy-year life spanned a critical time in American music as well as black history. O'Brien, John (illustrator).…
