Katherine Kinney (B.A. University of Washington; M.A., Ph.D. University of Pennsylvania) teaches twentieth-century American literature and film.

New York: Paragon House, 1991. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing. Hardcover. 24 cm. xxvi, 389, [1] pages. Map. Bibliography. Index. Pencil erasure residue on front endpaper. Sensitive and powerful guide to help Vietnam veterans work through the grief and remorse of post-traumatic stress disorder, while offering those close to them insights into the veteran's anger, nightmares, and pain. Derived from a Library Journal review: Kuenning aims this recovery manual at Vietnam's living casualties: those plagued with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and their relatives. She sketches the historical background behind the war, but mostly recounts stories of emotionally and/or physically ravaged veterans--men/women soldiers, POWs, MIAs, Amerasians, and Agent Orange victims. Each chapter contains a bibliography and specific strategies for coping; appendixes include devotional readings and a sample memorial service. Her extensive research, clear writing, and sound advice on resolving grief and guilt is state-of-the-art psychology. Recommended for larger self-help collections. - Janice Arenofsky, formerly with Arizona State Library, Phoenix. More

He was a recipient of the Distinguished Service Cross, the U.S. military's second-highest decoration for valor, and was the first of his West Point class (1945) to be promoted to brigadier general, major general, and lieutenant general. Moore is best remembered as the lieutenant colonel in command of the 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry Regiment, at the Battle of Ia Drang in 1965, during the Vietnam War. The battle was made into the movie We Were Soldiers in 2002, which starred actor Mel Gibson as Moore; Moore was the "honorary colonel" of the regiment. In 2013, author Mike Guardia published the first full-length biography of Moore's life and career titled Hal Moore: A Soldier Once...and Always. More
