{"product_id":"circle-of-helmets-poetry-and-letters-of-the-vietnam-war-9780998854243","title":"Circle of Helmets: Poetry and Letters of the Vietnam War","description":"Circle of Helmets is a one-of-a-kind literary time machine. First, the reader is introduced to a young, ingenuous soldier as he slowly and inexorably becomes hardened by the Vietnam War, through his raw, first-hand accounts of battles fought all across Vietnam, in the war's bloodiest year - - 1968. Then, many decades later, the reader meets the insightful, sensitive veteran he had become, through his intense poems about those same battlefields. Riveting and poignant, this book is a rare glimpse into the psyche of a Vietnam veteran, past and present. A deeply personal and compelling story, that you will not forget.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-3041267\"\u003eRick St John\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Currahee Press LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.25d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780998854243\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0998854247\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE001000\"\u003eAnthologies (multiple authors)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE005010\"\u003eAmerican | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRick St John --- story-teller, poet and historian --- has authored a wide range of creative works, from light-hearted, children's stories to poetry of the Vietnam War.
