SILENT SPRING - DEADLY AUTUMN OF THEVIETNAM WAR is both a memoir and an investigative journey into all the complications the U.S.government hasn't told you about the Vietnam War. It's not just another bookabout Vietnam or Agent Orange. Rather it'sa 'silver bullet' which cuts through to the heart of the circumstances and pesticides used during that war -- highly toxic herbicides and insecticides, which in some cases are still being used to this very day all over the globe, even right here in the USA. So, forget everything you've heard from our government and everything that you think you know about the Vietnam War because this book is much more than a memoir of one Vietnam veteran's struggles over the decades following the war. It's a story of all the veterans who served in Vietnam and their children.And it could even be the story of you and your children, too. As you read through the book and its volumes of information, you will be absolutely stunned at what the US government had willingly dumped on Vietnam and its own troops.".

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a thoughtful exploration of Quaker beliefs and practices. Arising from the Christian tradition, this book argues that the Society of Friends developed a unique and deep understanding of the Christian message. The author highlights that the Quakers' commitment to pacifism and plain living was rooted in their belief that God is present in all people and that the true riches of life are not material but spiritual. The author examines the experiences of early Quakers, their struggles for religious freedom, and their efforts to live out their faith in a world often hostile to their beliefs. Ultimately, this book is a reminder that there is more to religion than just going to church or following a prescribed set of rules. True faith requires courage, compassion, and a willingness to stand up for what you believe in. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
