Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. "In November 1965, some 450 men of the 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry, under the command of Lt. Col. Hal Moore, were dropped into a small clearing in the Ia Drang Valley. They were immediately surrounded by two thousand North Vietnamese soldiers. Three days later, only two and a half miles away, a sister battalion was massacred. Together, these actions constitute one of the most savage and singificant battles of the VIetnam War, one in which Americans faced what seemed to be certain destruction. Moore and Joe Galloway, the only journalist on the ground throughout the fighting, have interviewed hundreds of men who founght there. How these heroes persevered makes a vivid portrait of war at its most devastating and inspiring." "Hal Moore and Joe Galloway have captured the terror and exhilaration, the comradeship and self-sacrifice, the brutality and compassion that are the dark heart of war." - Neil Sheehan, author. "A powerful and epic story .This is the best account of infantry combat I have ever read, and the most significant book to come out of the Vietnam War." - Colonel David H. Hackworth, U.S. Army (Ret.), author of Steel My Soldiers' Heart.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine bright clipped dust jacket. On Nov. 14, 1965, the 1st Battalion of the 7th Cavalry, commanded by Lt. Col. Moore and accompanied by UPI reporter Galloway, helicoptered into Vietnam's remote Ia Drang Valley and found itself surrounded by a numerically superior force of North Vietnamese regulars. Moore and Galloway here offer a detailed account, based on interviews with participants and on their own recollections, of what happened during the four-day battle. Much more than a conventional battle study, the book is a frank record of the emotional reactions of the GIs to the terror and horror of this violent and bloody encounter. Both sides claimed victory, the U.S. calling it a validation of the newly developed doctrine of airmobile warfare. Supplemented with maps, the memoir is a vivid re-creation of the first major ground battle of the Vietnam War. Photos.

First Edition
Uncorrected Proof. 8vo. 24cm x 15.5cm. Publisher's printed card wraps, some scuffing to the laminate here and there but otherwise a near fine copy. 402pp. Internally clean. Black and white charts and diagrams to prelims. A calm, informed, nothing held back account of one the most influential battles of the early stages of the Vietnam conflict. Moore and Galloway, both present for the events of the book, Moore in command, and Galloway as a correspondent, recount step by step the progress of the battle; the first major engagement of the war, the first to extensively use helicopters to drop troops and equipment into battle, and the first engagment to utilise B-25 bombers as air support. Galloway describes Ia Drang as "The battle that convinced Ho Chi Minh he could win.", although that had little to do with the fighting ability of the 7th Cavalry, and more to do with the swift tactics lessons the battle offered, and the realisation that the US could take, but not hold, fight, but not pursue, and they could destroy, but only what was on the surface. It changed the course of the conflict for both sides, and took many prior strategic techniques back to the drawing board. Uncorrected proofs of this title are quite scarce.
