Friendly Fire
Author: C. D. B. Bryan
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504034791
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
The true story of Michael Mullen, a soldier killed in Vietnam, and his parents’ quest for the truth from the US government: “Brilliantly done” (The Boston Globe). Drafted into the US Army, Michael Mullen left his family’s Iowa farm in September 1969 to fight for his country in Vietnam. Six months later, he returned home in a casket. Michael wasn’t killed by the North Vietnamese, but by artillery fire from friendly forces. With the government failing to provide the precise circumstances of his death, Mullen’s devastated parents, Peg and Gene, demanded to know the truth. A year later, Peg Mullen was under FBI surveillance. In a riveting narrative that moves from the American heartland to the jungles of Vietnam to the Vietnam Veterans Against the War march in Washington, DC, to an interview with Mullen’s battalion commander, Lt. Col. H. Norman Schwarzkopf, author C. D. B. Bryan brings to life with brilliant clarity a military mission gone horrifically wrong, a patriotic family’s explosive confrontation with their government, and the tragedy of a nation at war with itself. Originally intended to be an interview for the New Yorker, the story Bryan uncovered proved to be bigger than he expected, and it was serialized in three consecutive issues during February and March 1976, and was eventually published as a book that May. In 1979, Friendly Fire was made into an Emmy Award–winning TV movie, starring Carol Burnett, Ned Beatty, and Sam Waterston. This ebook features an illustrated biography of C. D. B. Bryan, including rare images from the author’s estate.

Book Description
In 2026 the Devastation destroyed almost everything; buildings toppled, forests fell, animals died, humanity was nearly wiped out. Only children survived, aged twelve years and under. Those that were not crushed by the falling buildings wandered through dust filled streets finding the others. Bonding together they formed their own clans and watched the world regrow from death to a morphed and mutated form. For six years they have lived their new life, fought to survive the new terrors that science had created and inadvertently set free. Now aged eighteen the elders have created laws and rules, guidelines for all within their clans to follow, but one clan will change everything. Alongside the good grows evil and evil has to spread, it has to hold power and control, has to destroy the good. A selected few from each of the clans must join together, as they are pulled by the evil that draws them to the unknown hell where it resides. As the clans fight amongst themselves and their differences, two leaders strive to rise above when they realise only together can they fight to continue their survival.

Book Description
“Exceptional…the perfect holiday entertainment.”— Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW This Christmas season, travel to the North Pole you’ve never seen before—where Santa’s new wife, April Claus, is not only set on creating the perfect holiday—she’s also set on solving the perfect crime… Love is full of surprises—though few compare to realizing that you’re marrying the real-life Santa. April Claus dearly loves her new husband, Nick, but adjusting to life in the North Pole is not all sugarplums and candy canes. Especially when a cantankerous elf named Giblet Hollyberry is killed—felled by a black widow spider in his stocking—shortly after publicly arguing with Nick. Christmastown is hardly a hotbed of crime, aside from mishaps caused by too much eggnog, but April disagrees with Constable Crinkle’s verdict of accidental death. As April sets out to find the culprit, it’ll mean putting the future of Christmas on the line—and hoping her own name isn’t on a lethal naughty list . . .
