Random House, 1971. First edition, first printing. VG / F. Slight nick to rear top edge and previous owner name on front flyleaf. Otherwise, this is a clean, square and well-preserved copy. Unclipped dustjacket is fine and protected in mylar. Author Neil Sheehan was a N.Y. Times journalist during the Vietnam War era. He received a Pulitzer Prize and a National Book Award for his 1988 book, A Bright Shining Lie, about U.S. involvement in that war. This book is the true story of Aurelius Arnheiter, captain of the USS Vance, a patrol ship stationed off the South Vietnam coast in March, 1966. Arnheiter was relieved of his command by naval authorities after only 99 days, charged with demoralizing his crew, reckless military judgment, and general lack of integrity. An incredible account of real-life Caine Mutiny. Carefully packaged and shipped in a box.
