Popular Reality
I came across references Homer Bigart's name in William Prochnau's book ONCE UPON A DISTANT WAR in which he tells the story of the travails of young reporters in Vietnam in the early years of America's involvement with corrupt Diem regime there. Bigart was something of a legend among the reporters there, a kind of iconic war correspondent. I went looking for more information on Bigart and found this book at ABE for a reasonable price.
In this volume Betsy White has compiled selected stories that Bigart filed from Europe during the WWII, from Greece and the Middle East, from Korea and from his final assignment in Vietnam.
This was book #33 on our 2016 Read-aloud list.
