I agree with all the positive comments about BG. Also, interesting he sited two books about Vietnam. If you haven't caught the Ken Burns documentary on Vietnam (http://kenburns.com/films/vietnam/) you should try to catch it if it repeats on your PBS station or order them from pbs.org and help support them. KB always does great work and if you don't have time to read a book about it, it is a really great documentary series IMHO.
