Description: Fields of Fire by James Webb A historical novel by former Virginia Senator James Webb. Released in 1978, the book is loosely based on Webb’s experiences as a Marine during the Vietnam War. The book is widely regarded as one of the best fictional accounts of the war, The Washington Post calling it one of the “great American war novels.” The novel begins in 1969 and focuses on three main characters: Snake, Hodges, and Senator. The Vietnam War is in full swing and soldiers either enlist voluntarily or are drafted. Senator, a Harvard student from a well-to-do family, is drafted, unlike his friends who find various ways to dodge. Although he doesn’t know what he is in for in Vietnam, he faces the challenge head-on.NOTE: I will not be able to ship from 9/20/24 - 9/27/24 and 10/8/24 - 10/16/24
