For anyone who was in there late teens or early 20’s who had family members or friends who had served in Vietnam this is the most phenomenal read and this is my 3rd time reading Up Country. Kudos to DeMille for capturing an era in our history during tragic and dissent full times. God Bless those Veterans who served and returned to America to face the disgusting treatment they received by so many in the USA and abroad.

This book was interesting for a bit of Vietnam war history, but the storyline is so predictable. The relationship between the main characters was so awful and unrealistic it was hard to read sometimes.

My fav book by this author!

Excellent story about Vietnam. I am a Vietnam Veteran that has returned their 16 times. Recommend this book to people that are going with me.

It was difficult to put this novel down. I wish to thank the author for putting into words the descriptive feelings of a two TOD in-country Hospital Corpsman. I found the book to be authentic, original and true to the experiences one found in Vietnam during the 60's. Nelson, thank you for your service and welcome home!

Having spent 1968 "in country," I found this tour of Vietnam a fascinating and thoroughly enjoyable journey. The story line was a roller coaster ride that never slowed until the last page. I will be recommending it to all my 'nam buddies.

Absolutely could not put it down! I felt as if I were the one "Up Country"!!!

Page turner. Relevant. Sexy. Inviting. Go for it. Worth your time.
