About the Book
In 1970, after four years in Vietnam, two as an Army Military Policeman and two as a civilian worker Jim left behind his daughter Phuong. It is estimated that fifty thousand Amerasians were left behind when the Americans pulled out of the country for good in 1973. Jim had returned to Vietnam to bring his daughter home but failing to do so carried it with him for decades after the war. Join him on his journey through personal tragedy as a young boy growing up in Maryland to his final redemption through forgiveness. His journey is often humorous, self deprecating with a wide array of characters as he travels through life.

 

Reviews
....a warm and at times tender loving story of a young man seeking to find himself during the war and the years afterwards. It is about a journey and not just a diary of where he has been and what he has done.
- Reverend Bill McDonald
This is one of the best books I've yet read based on a soldier's experiences in Vietnam. Well-written and emotional; this novel will haunt you. I read this book in one sitting, maybe the first time I've ever done that.
- Randy Mixter, Author
The author writes with pure emotion, with a knack for capturing conversation between he and his family, he and Mai, and he and his fellow soldiers. This adds a high degree of credibility to the book.
- Rob Ballister, Navy Veteran
