Vietnam war portraits : the faces and voices  Cover Image Book Book

Vietnam war portraits : the faces and voices / Thomas Sanders ; foreword by John Rowan.

Sanders, Thomas, (author,, photographer.). Rowan, John, (writer of foreword.).

Summary:

"The surreal imagery of Thomas Sanders' vivid portraits encourages the viewer to take a closer look at those who experienced the war, giving them a chance to read the haunting, inspirational, and sometimes comical stories of the individuals of the Vietnam War. Set in a surreal jungle environment, the portraits evoke the sense of darkness and uncertainty felt by those who experienced the war. Some of the portraits hold objects that relate to their role or experience during their time in the service. The objects tell a deeper story of a dark and confusing war: the common cigarette pack smoked by the vets while in the jungle; a homemade grenade made by the northern Vietnamese; and a "order to report" document - a piece of paper that changed many a life."
