Reviews

A riveting account of several hitherto obscure or overlooked battles in the northern provinces of South Vietnam in 1967 and 1968. Humphries excels in capturing the problems, confusion, teamwork, and heroics that accompany combat. Through the Valley ... is a must-read for anyone claiming to be knowledgeable about Vietnam combat. Humphries is to be commended for the excellence and professionalism he exhibits in his superlative work. With it he honors those who served. [Through the Valley] is a sad story.... It is also a fine story of outstanding combat leadership and of courage and aggressiveness under heavy fire.... Well worth the reading for those interested in how the conventional war was fought in Vietnam.
