5.0 out of 5 stars A New View of Vietnam, 20 Oct 2002
By A Customer
The stories in War Torn are riveting and capture the will and determination of women journalists to have equal access to cover the war. But they also bring Saigon and Vietnam in the 60s and 70 alive to anyone too young to remember. I applaud these women for making the Vietnam war accessible to a generation who grew up after the war.
War Torn leave the reader happy and sad but thoroughly enchanted. For anyone who is a history buff, a traveler planning to visit Vietnam or simply a lover of great tales, I highly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Visions of Vietnam from the women were there, 6 Feb 2005
By Ms. R. J. Mantle "rjmantle" (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
War Torn is one of the most moving books I have ever read. I couldn't put it down, finding each of the nine accounts simply heart stopping. The topics broached such as orphans, poverty, death, friendship, love, discrimination, fear and relief are meshed together in such a way that you are almost transported to Vietnam yourself. I found myself thinking of my own family and friends, and viewing the war in a totally new light. Torn between tears and laughter for much of the read I would recomend this book to everyone.
