Edgar Tiffany has written this book about a book, a very fine book, a very fine book about Vietnam, a very fine book about the pinnacle of combat in Vietnam and an even finer book about the plateau of the post-Vietnam experience. As Colors of WAR & PEACE was described in its publication release, Thompson's tale is a pastiche of stories spanning the long divide between chaos and community. Assigned to Top Secret, Studies and Observation Group (SOG) during the Vietnam War, Thompson returned home to school, family and career. Convinced that his Vietnam chapter was closed, the author forgot and forged on. But the arc of his war had not reached its apogee. Driven by an addiction for risk and desire to reorder his war, the author wrote these stories of his inexorable fall. Tiffany now illuminates these powerful and intimate stories of how memories, once buried, rise again from the dead like a phoenix with an excavation befitting the gravediggers of Laos. Edgar Tiffany, the author of Audie Murphy In Saigon, takes a microscope to D.M. Thompson's Colors of War & Peace: A Collection of Short Stories, and you may never think of exegesis in the same light again after reading this critical history. D.M. Thompson and Edgar Tiffany served together in the 11th Special Forces Reserves (Airborne) in the late 70's and bonded over coincidences of service in the Army, combat in Vietnam, and interests in certain kinds of writing going on over the last half century. These coincidences led Tiffany to a deep analysis of Thompson's Vietnam, America and his interpretations of them. The writer, David L. Robbins, said of Colors, "The way home from war is a long and improbable odyssey. Thompson, a soldier of deep experience with combat and unending search for peace, renders this collection of stories with immense and singular intimacy ... every word fiercely crafted by a strong hand, recalled with an unflinching eye." The reader is in for a roller coaster ride, several parachute drops and (gun) barrels of laughter, sometimes the kind that can make you cry. STRAP IN FOR THE RIDE!
