“Passionate and gripping, The Journalist is the story of Jerry Rose, an acclaimed American journalist who gave his life to tell the hidden truth about the US’s involvement in the bloody, divisive Vietnam War…     – Foreword Reviews

“Readers will feel as if they’ve been in the firefights Rose describes, an immediacy both thrilling and frightening.”    – Kirkus Reviews-starred review

” This very personal story by a dedicated, courageous and prescient reporter is riveting, and shockingly relevant to the last nineteen years of our violent stalemate in Afghanistan..”     – Daniel Ellsberg, author of Secrets: Vietnam and the Pentagon Papers

“The Journalist is unlike any other book that you’ve read on the Vietnam War. This prescient memoir has the suspense of a novel that anticipates all that would eventually go wrong in Vietnam.”     –  Paul Mooney, Vietnam veteran and American journalist reporting on Asia

“Totally engaging from the first page, The Journalist builds on the diaries of an acclaimed reporter for major U.S. newspapers and magazines, chronicling Vietnam’s struggles just as the United States was becoming more engaged than most Americans knew or cared.     – Neal Gendler, former staff reporter, Minneapolis Star-Tribune
