5.0 out of 5 stars This mans life has seen both ends of the scale!, 31 May 2002
By A Customer
It took me the best part of a year to find this book and believe me it is worth waiting for. The only problem is that before you notice the book is finished and you want to know more about this man and his saint of a wife!
I found myself laughing and amazed at the meandering route this mans life has taken. From the drug smuggling to moving a girlfriend in with him and his wife! And going to prison when life finally was looking up. All in all I think if we wait just long enough he will astound us once again with his experiance's. On a more serious note, the problems that were caused by serving, on this man and others like him should entitle them all to at least a medal.

4.0 out of 5 stars Blood and guts memoir of a Vietnam chopper pilot, 4 Jan 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Chickenhawk : Back in the World Again (Paperback)
Absolutely gripping blokes' book; though details of flying techniques and jargon may baffle some, it feels utterly authentic. Mason comes across as an ordinary guy whose prejudices about the war are gradually overcome by experience. The action is engrossing though completely unromanticised, as are the accounts of the pilots' more down-to earth experiences, be it digging foxholes, carting bits of bodies around or whoring their way round SE Asia. Mason's skills are perhaps more those of an honest diarist than dramatist - there are moments when the high points of a story get a bit lost in the action and detail - but it's genuinely unputdownable.
