New York: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1974. Very good (a few light foxing spots on page edges; a few page corners have been turned down by a careless reader) in near fine dust jacket (price-clipped). Besides being a novelist of note, McCarthy, in the 1960s and 1970s, wrote three small books on the Vietnam War, and these are reprinted here as the middle three sections. The first section is a memoir about her writing of these three controversial pieces, and the last section is a devastating review of David Halberstam's blockbuster "The Best and the Brightest." Excellent reading copy. 451 pages including index. Medina, incidentally, was Lt William Calley's immediate superior at My Lai.. 1st Edition thus. Hard Cover.

And that, in a nutshell, was why I had come to North Vietnam. Patriotism, I had surmised, had played a large part in my decision to go, and this was true, as far as it went. I could not bear to see my country disfigure itself so, when I might do something to stop it. It had surprised me to find that I cared enough about America to risk being hit by a U. S. bomb for its sake..." "In five brilliant essays, four of which have already appeared in the New York Review of Books, and a spirited exchange of letters with Diana Trilling, Mary McCarthy concludes her analysis of the war in Vietnam which she first reported in 1967 in her brilliant polemic "Vietnam.""
