توضیحاتی درمورد کتاب به خارجی
<p><p>Although his career continued for almost
three decades after the 1939 publication of The Grapes of
Wrath, John Steinbeck is still most closely associated with his
Depression-era works of social struggle. But from Pearl Harbor
on, he often wrote passionate accounts of America's wars based
on his own firsthand experience. Vietnam was no
exception.</p>
<p>Thomas E. Barden's <i>Steinbeck in
Vietnam</i> offers for the first time a complete
collection of the dispatches Steinbeck wrote as a war
correspondent for <i>Newsday.</i> Rejected by the
military because of his reputation as a subversive, and
reticent to document the war officially for the Johnson
administration, Steinbeck saw in <i>Newsday</i> a
unique opportunity to put his skills to use. Between December
1966 and May 1967, the sixty-four-year-old Steinbeck toured the
major combat areas of South Vietnam and traveled to the north
of Thailand and into Laos, documenting his experiences in a
series of columns titled Letters to Alicia, in reference to
<i>Newsday</i> publisher Harry F. Guggenheim's
deceased wife. His columns were controversial, coming at a time
when opposition to the conflict was growing and even ardent
supporters were beginning to question its course. As he dared
to go into the field, rode in helicopter gunships, and even
fired artillery pieces, many detractors called him a warmonger
and worse. Readers today might be surprised that the celebrated
author would risk his literary reputation to document such a
divisive war, particularly at the end of his
career.</p>
<p>Drawing on four primary-source archives—the
Steinbeck collection at Princeton, the Papers of Harry F.
Guggenheim at the Library of Congress, the Pierpont Morgan
Library's Steinbeck holdings, and the archives of
<i>Newsday</i>—Barden's collection brings
together the last published writings of this American author of
enduring national and international stature. In addition to
offering a definitive edition of these essays, Barden includes
extensive notes as well as an introduction that provides
background on the essays themselves, the military situation,
the social context of the 1960s, and Steinbeck's personal and
political attitudes at the time.</p></p>
