Offerings at the Wall: Artifacts from the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Collection

Rating:
Summary: very good
Review: Eventhough I do not understand the Vietnam war, and I was not alive at the time, this book really touched me. The guilt, pain, and loss that the offerings people had left made me cry. There was a picture with a little girl and her dad, and a veteren was telling about the day he met the man in the photo. I think that story will stick with me forever. I saw the pain of innocense lost through the artifacts, and the truth of the poeple in that war was revealed. I reconmmend this book to anyone from that era to the youth of mine.

Summary: A Tribute
Review: I sobbed through Offerings at the Wall. Sobbed for the loss of innocence and young lives lost. For anyone raised in the 1960s this should be a must read to understand and come to grips with the imapct the Vietnam War had on our generation. God speed to our veterans and to the brave young men and women of today's military still fighting for our freedom. Please take the time to thank a veteran for his/her service to our country.

Summary: The most important book written in the US!
Review: This book is beyond catagorization. More than any story, journalism, or war photos could ever do, this book demonstrates the horrors that soldiers in Vietnam were subjected to both "in-country" and state-side. Every American should own this book.
