greatest books about war image
The Equali
I'm looking for non-fiction books about the Vietnam War. What are some epic and notable books in your opinion?
Specifically, I'm looking for books that were firsthand accounts from soldiers themselves. Not just US soldiers but Viet Cong/NVA troops as well. Thanks.
Answer
Bao Ninh's book, "The Sorrow of War", will give you a view from the other side. Fiction written by a NVA veteran.
From the US side:
We were soldiers once and young - H. G. Moore and J. L Galloway
The first battle - - Otto J. Lehrack

What is the best book for first year teachers?

If you have a list of several great books for a first year teacher, that would be good. If you give several, please mark the one you most highly recommend.
My apologies people! I meant a great book with advice, tips, classroom management strategies, etc. all in one for first year teachers... sorry that the question was confusing and thank you for the lists and advice, but I have 5th grade this year. I don't think they are quite ready for most of those just yet, lol.
The Promiscuous Christian Lady: Great book list though! :)
Lynn: Wow, when you make an ugly comment like that, it obviously shows that you cannot comprehend the question and it just makes you look stupid.
