197728390New York:: Knopf 1977. First Printing of the First Edition. A Near Fine tight copy with spots to the margins of three pages in a Fine bright unclipped dust jacket. A nice copy of this classic of reportage on the war. No names or marks to the book or text. Michael Herr went to Vietnam in 1967 virtually unknown as a writer but armed with press credentials for Esquire Magazine he quickly rose above the crowd of writers covering the war with his brilliant unorthodox prose. Herr's six extended pieces in this collection capture the war and its participants like no other writer except for Tim O'Brian in his equally masterful "The Things They Carried." Herr was one of the original Gonzo New Journalists in the company of such literary trail-cutters as Hunter S Thompson Tom Wolfe Truman Capote and Gay Talese. Herr when not hunkered down in the battle for Khe Sanh spent many off hours in the company of three other flamboyant correspondents: Tim Page Dana Stone and Sean Flynn. Page would survive his experience in Vietnam but Stone and Flynn would disappear their bodies never found. Herr found himself in as much danger as the soldiers he set out to document in a war that was more disillusioning than understandable. "Dispatches" is as good as war writing gets; Herr puts the reader right where he is so that his experience becomes yours which is about as close as most people would ever want to get to the real thing.

1966List36100New York: New York Workshop in Nonviolence 1966. Broadside poster printed in red on white stock approximately 14 x 11 inches. Near Fine. A poster announcing the Peace Illumination Walk an anti-Vietnam War demonstration held in New York City on Friday December 23 1966. Participants were instructed to assemble in Washington Square at 6 p.m. and march through Manhattan carrying candles “in sympathy with suffering in Vietnam.†The walk was to conclude about 8 p.m. with a light tableau in Midtown followed at 9 p.m. by a benefit celebration at the Palm Gardens. The event was organized by the New York Workshop in Nonviolence and advertised as a benefit for Vietnamese children. Speakers and performers listed on the poster include poets Allen Ginsberg Denise Levertov and Jackson Mac Low; the satirist Paul Krassner later a founder of the Youth International Party Yippies; novelist Gilbert Sorrentino; and the countercultural rock group The Fugs led by Ed Sanders and Tuli Kupferberg. The program also notes appearances by Swami Bhaktivedanta and members of the Hare Krishna movement.<br /> <br /> The poster’s radiating optical design centers on the word “manifestivity†a term used by anti-war organizers to describe protest events combining demonstration with music and performance. The lower portion includes a mail-in coupon inviting supporters to send contributions to the Veterans and Reservists to End the War in Vietnam through the New York Workshop in Nonviolence at 5 Beekman Street.

196662733New York: Frederick Fell 1966. First Edition. First Printing. Special Limited Edition number of copies unknown. 8vo. 21cm x 14cm. Publisher's full black leather titled in gilt to spine with decorative gilt ruling to the front board. Clean and handsome. In a black cloth slipcase duplicating the design of the dustjacket for the trade edition. Inscribed on an inserted handmade paper limitation page with some a rather lavish gold ink limitation statement by the author and his wife:<br /> "Mimi and Marguerite with the deep love and affection of The Kruegers Dec. 4 1966 Carl Krueger Ida Krueger"<br /> Billed as "The First Novel of The Vietnam War" and definitely early although according to Newman's bibliographical survey of Vietnam War fiction this rather showy and gung ho novel ranks as the 12th published novel although only 3 novels were published in 1965 whilst the next 25 or so all made na appearance in 1966. This limited presentation issue of the first edition seems completely unknown. Krueger was a decidedly old school author and screenwriter from the post WW2 adventure cinema genre he has writing credits on "Comanche" and "Sabre Jet" both scorching technicolour action movies. He produced the Wyler/Sturges wartime propaganda documentary "Thunderbolt" in 1944 and seems to have had a leaning towards spectacular aircraft movies where the machines occupied as much if not more screen time as the human actors. That certainly seems to have been the intention here it's very aircraft heavyobsessed with the Phantom II and the Vietnamese characters are portrayed as either Machiavellian or offensively stupid. The trade edition dustwrapper bears the statement: "Mr Krueger will personally produce Wings of The Tiger as the greatest air spectacle ever filmed." As far as can be established Mr. Krueger did not. Regardless of anything else it's an interesting illustration of the fact that going into Vietnam with a WW2 mindset was not something exclusively limited to armchair strategists and DC pundits it was also prevalent among those writing and filming accounts of the conflict.
