A very special book from Rogue Books . . . just in time for Memorial Day.
Dr. Tom’s War – A Daughter’s Journey by Lucia Viti brings to life the forgotten voices of the men who fought in Vietnam.
One fateful day while cleaning the attic, Lucia Viti stumbled upon a Harry & David fruit box filled with the remnants of her father’s tour of duty in 1967 as a Battalion Surgeon in An Hoa during the Vietnam War. Lucia became obsessed with a need to reconnect with the memories of her father and spent four years traveling across America, gathering stories from the Marines of the Second Battalion Fifth Marine Regiment, First Marine Division who served alongside her father.
This quest to learn about a Dr. Tom she never knew turned into a unique journey of discovery through the eyes of a very special brotherhood of young men. A journey that weaves the Marine esprit de corps with the horrors and humor of war with a first-hand, no-holds-barred perspective on combat life in Vietnam in 1967.
“Well told, in large measure through the gritty recollections of the men of the Second Battalion/Fifth Marines who lived them, the book details the daily sacrifices they made for each other, Corps, and Country.” — Gen. James T. Conway, USMC (Ret) 34th Commandant, U.S. Marine Corps
“Dr. Tom’s War – A Daughter’s Journey is a marvelous piece of detective work . . . Lucia Viti has skillfully and successfully placed the many pieces of the Viet Nam puzzle together.” — Jan K. Herman, Historian, Navy Medical Department, Washington, DC
“Dr. Tom’s War – A Daughter’s Journey is a must read for those who wish to experience The Vietnam War as a first-hand perspective from those who served on the front-line.” — James T. Denton, Actor/Desperate Housewives/Threat Matrix Musician/The Band From TV
