Told with a biting humor, Draftee: A High School Teacher Goes to War by David Volk shares an altogether original and incredibly vivid account of the Vietnam experience. At times derisive, yet surprisingly tender the author, a correspondent and combat photographer, introduces a menagerie of crazies and eccentrics-and a few good men. From mutant mutts to donut dollies, this Midwest draftee learned a little about war and a lot about life.
