“It is a wonderful, and very well-written book. I really recommend for everybody to read this book. I am not a person who like to read, but this book is really interesting and it is real story. Thank you so much and I am waiting for more books!!!!!â€
“One of the best books I've ever read! If you really enjoy in-depth and visual war stories, this is the book for you. It's very detailed and makes you feel like you’re actually in Vietnam throughout the whole thing. Once I received this book I could NOT put it down!!! I will definitely be buying more books from this author as they come out! Great job, Tim. Keep it up, bud!â€
“The Eagle and the Tiger is a compelling, powerful novel about the brutal, sometimes compassionate relationships between our own American soldiers in Vietnam, as well as their enemy, the Vietcong. The storytelling is so vivid that I felt I was in the jungle marching with the grunts or in heat of battle with bullets whizzing by my ears. The political statements are both justified and sometimes shocking as they comment on the government, as well as our military forces. I especially liked the way the book smoothly transitions between the relationships of Americans soldiers and the Vietcong, telling us both sides of the story. I highly recommend The Eagle and the Tiger, especially for our younger generation so they can form a better understanding of the Vietnam War.â€
Bill Fleming’s first day with the 173rd Airborne Division in Vietnam was a memorable one.
Fleming had once been a promising pitcher for the White Sox, but he decided that serving his country was more important than his love of baseball. Joining the army for a four-year enlistment, it started out as smooth sailing.
However, his time overseas in the war proved to be the kind of experience that defined a generation. Fleming came to hate the war, yet was entrapped in the insanity.
And in this insanity, lives were lost and dreams died.
STILL NOT SURE? Here are some reviews from readers like you:
“I'm not usually a fan of in-depth war fiction, but I'm so glad I read 'The Eagle and the Tiger' by Tim Davis. There is no doubt that the war in Vietnam was full of horrors, and Davis does not shy away from that, making for a gritty, brutal read. But he also brilliantly portrays the human side of war, describing the solid relationships that developed within units of the US Army, as well as between the child soldiers of the Viet Cong. It's hard to remember that soldiers are human beings, too, with hopes and dreams that once seemed possible, before being dropped into a war they didn't properly understand. I highly recommend this book; it was powerful, exciting, and moving, too. I can't wait to read more from Tim Davis.â€
“Wow, a graphic depiction of the war in Vietnam. If you have any doubt about man’s inhumanity to man, the pages here will awaken you to the real world you live in and your own moral dilemmas and truths. Who would you have become in these circumstances?â€
“I found Tim Davis' book fascinating and very engrossing. The characters were very well developed and he was able to show both sides of the conflict in a way that engages the reader. I would recommend this book highly.â€
