Arlington Heights, IL, `Pioneer Post', 17 October 2002, week-end article announces the publication of `April Fools' - "..a Vietnam Tale from Civilian Perspective."
A Vietnam Tale from Civilian Perspective
Former Lake Zurich resident George W. Schwarz Jr. recently published the memoir “April Fools.”
In the book, Schwarz returns to Saigon after an absence of 17 years to describe the Vietnam War from a rarely heard perspective — that of an American civilian who live in South Vietnam during the War.
From the moment his aircraft begins its final approach until he makes an aborted attempt to visit Cam Ranh Bay, haunting memories reveal new revelations of the war. As he tours a city little changed since his departure, Schwarz recalls his first impressions of Saigon, the war, South Vietnam’s collapse, the evacuation of refugees and his own evacuation from Saigon.
“April Fools,” a trade paperback, is available at a discounted price of $19.95 (from the cover price of $24.95) at http://www.publishamerica.com/, the Web site of the company that published the book.
