Ghosts of war : chasing my father's legend through Vietnam / Eric Reguly.

Reguly, Eric, (author.).

Summary:

"In the 1960s, there were few bigger journalists than the Toronto Star's Robert Reguly, who landed a series of international scoops and was right there in the Ambassador Hotel kitchen when Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated. But no story loomed larger in Reguly's life, or in the world's consciousness, than the war in Vietnam, which he covered from startlingly close range in 1967. Vietnam haunted Robert, and his family, for the rest of their lives. Half a century later, his son Eric Reguly--himself an esteemed foreign correspondent--retraces his late father's footsteps through Vietnam's combat zones. Ghosts of War is the story of Eric's emotional quest to understand the complicated and distant man who raised him and guided him into journalism, as well as a reflection on his father's complex legacy."-- Provided by publisher.
