Yet, their voices have remained largely silent during the past three decades while a significant body of literature concerning the war experience has been evolving.

Highly recommended

That got me to wondering and led me to Lonn's book. I found it very informative about many aspects of desertion, including: the reasons men deserted, what happened to them if they were caught, ...

much needed perspective
This book provides much needed discussion on what has always been a heated political/emotional issue - desertion from the military.

Some causes that stand out include: substandard supplies ...
