Summary: Real stories of war
Review: This book is good. I liked it. I like war books and movies because action is cool! The guns were the old kinds, like M60 machine guns. It was very bloody and contained torture, which seemed very real to me in a gruesome kind of way. I recommend this book to people who like war stories because it tells the truth about war.

Summary: The Personification of Photojournalism
Review: When I consider the concept "Photojournalism," Larry Burrows comes to mind. His images, published in Life magazine, brought the heat of battle, the devastated countryside, the brutality of the Vietnam War into my safe, teenaged world here in the United States. He photographed the conflict from the early days of American involvement in 1962 until 1971, when he died in a helicopter shot down over the Vietnam-Laos border. His images stoked much of the anti-war sentiment that enveloped my generation. To see his photo essays is to relive those tortured times. While depicting what are often horrifying moments, this book is, at the same time, a celebration of Burrows courage, compassion and nose for news. The pictures are brutal, poignant and at the time, timely. They represent photojournalism at it best; harsh reality raised to an art form.
