A Rumor of War by Philip Caputo	When it first appeared, A Rumor of War brought home to American readers, with terrifying vividness and honesty, the devastating effects of the Vietnam War on the soldiers who fought there. And while it is a memoir of one young man’s experiences and therefore deeply personal, it is also a book that speaks powerfully about the larger themes of human conscience, good and evil, and the desperate extremes men are forced to confront in any war. A platoon commander in the first combat unit sent to fight in Vietnam, Lieutenant Caputo landed at Danang on March 8, 1965, convinced that American forces would win a quick and decisive victory over the Communists. Sixteen months later and without ceremony, Caputo left Vietnam a shell-shocked veteran whose youthful idealism and faith in the rightness of the war had been utterly shattered. Caputo gives us an unflinching view not only of remarkable bravery and heroism but also of the atrocities committed in Vietnam by ordinary men so numbed by fear and desperate to survive that their moral distinctions had collapsed.

ALBERT SCHWEITZER - REVERENCE FOR LIFE Translated by Reginald H. Fuller	Albert Schweitzer (1875-1965) Alsatian philosopher, theologian, musician, mission doctor and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1952. A world figure in the theological studies, he was an organist of concert caliber and an interpreter of rare and original perception of Bach. In 1913 he founded his famous hospital in French Equatorial Africa (later the republic of Gabon) building it with his worn hands. This collection of his theological thoughts demonstrates Dr. Schweitzer's own original contribution of "Reverence for Life" as the true and effective basis for a civilized world.

Bacall: By Myself (The Bogart Years) by Lauren Bacall	In a word, Bacall By Myself is terrific.

At 17 she was a photographer's dream and a Harper's Bazaar cover girl . . . and suddenly Betty Bacall was a Hollywood celebrity, dazzled by all she met, especially her leading man, Humphrey Bogart. Bacall wrote about her life as she lived it, every detail, every magic moment, every heartache. You will love listening to her life on cassette.
