ON THUNDER ROAD

"...this is the only Vietnam story that I felt captured what it was really like to be there." - R. GuglielminoBased on actual events from the Michael Shapiro's tour of duty, On Thunder Road is a novel that paints the Vietnam War with a different kind of brush.It is not a story of raping locals or burning huts, as Hollywood often portrays soldiers of the war. It's a story of brothers-in-arms. Of men from all walks of life, sharing everything and relying on each other to survive the crucible of combat."... Shapiro captures the sights, sounds, and ironies of the Vietnam War with force and humorous authenticity. 'On Thunder Road' is a great book from the first page to the last paragraph." - D. Dell
