The Steadfast American: A Vietnam Story

• Author

  • Nov 2021 - Nov 2021

  His father never spoke much of Vietnam, and Mark Sollars had always wondered why. His curiosity grew over the passing years until one day, compelled by a rising unease for a failure to get a full account of his dad's military experience, Mark asked him to talk about what he did there. The ensuing conversation covered war, friendship, and a divisive American era. And it underscored the importance of asking the most important people in our lives to sit down and tell us their story. A valuable addition to Vietnam War literature, The Steadfast American is a potent, clearly written, short-and-to-the-point account of officer Sheldon Sollars' experiences in the "thick of it" in Vietnam. Author Mark Sollars, a writer and editor by trade, captures the insights, perspectives, and ironic wit of his father as he tells his captivating tale. —David Aretha, editor of The Sixties Chronicle
