Overview

A fictional account of gut-level combat as seen through the eyes of American and North Vietnamese participants. In war, every action has a beginning and an end. Echo Among Warriors is a story of close combat between two opposing, equally committed adversaries. The powerful narrative immerses the reader in both sides of the battle, playing and replaying the same battle sequence from alternating viewpoints - through the eyes of the Marines and through the eyes of the North Vietnamese. The bullet fired from a Marine's M-16 at a silhouetted enemy solider crouched on the jungle path will in the next chapter tear into the flesh of that crouched NVA trooper. The story - unfolding from the initial contact to the final horrific ending - represents just one of perhaps thousands of deadly encounters that reflect the reality of battle - a mind-numbing, intensely personal experience that forever changes the participant.
