This book, written by James Lyles, a former Vietnam gun truck commander, is an authoritative reference on a number of special hybrid vehicles called Vietnam gun trucks and the extraordinary crews who manned them. During their 5 year history from late 1967 thru late 1972, Vietnam gun trucks were without a doubt the most important wheeled vehicles to see duty in Vietnam. They were mainly used for convoy security and installation perimeter defense, but were also used in other roles. It was originally thought that only 150 of these vehicles existed but the book now includes a list of over 350 gun truck names and rare photos of nearly 300 different guntrucks Volume I includes gun trucks and their swasbuckling crews with 80 pages of mostly color photos of regular 2-1/2 ton and 5-ton gun trucks, eyewitness accounts, humorous gun truck related short stories, full sized gun truck scale models. paper covers, 8 1/2 x 11, glossy page stock, 80 pages, well illustrated in color and B& W.
Review: by F. L. Busch AMAZING photographic history of these fine machines
This is quite possibly the richest collection of viet nam era photos I have ever seen, let alone collections of gun trucks. Too often in books on the subject of Vietnam you see the same old boring dry "war is hell" photos. This painstakingly assembled collection of everything having to do with gun trucks is well worth the purchase price, and every photo tells a story. Every time I pick it up I lose track of time studying the photos. Practically every single gun truck pic I have seen on the web comes from or is in this book, and in the book it is full color and in much better quality. There's no better book, article, website, etc. on the subject, bar none. You need this book!
