"...an
extraordinary tribute to the GIs who, as [Roth] did, served in
Vietnam...powerful without being overbearing and moving without being
mawkish....Nowhere else in the reams and reams I have read (and written)
about the Indochina war...have I seen our troops so well portrayed and
explained"        -The Washington Post

"Sand in the Wind could
become the major novel of the conflict....Nothing is contrived in this
novel...[and] the...problems facing the... American soldier...are
treated with perception and insight."        -Library Journal

"Simplicity,
intuitiveness, and naked truth are the reader's companions....The book
is a must for all Marine leaders."        -Leatherneck

"The few
novels that have appeared have been so biased as to be either unfair
indictments of the war itself or glorified tales of warriors running
through the jungles. With...Sand in the Wind, the drought refreshingly
is broken."    -Air Force Times

"...Roth is a fine writer with a
real talent for narrative, for creating character, for dialogue and a
fevered humor which lends conviction to episodes of otherwise incredible
horror."    -Commonweal

"Sand In The Wind stands virtually in a
class by itself for sheer power, uncompromising realism, and staggering
impact. The reader is brought face to face with the ferocity and
confusion of ground fighting....This book is a must on your reading
list."    -Charleston S.C. News And Courier

"...gives voice to the men who fought and suffered in the Vietnam War."        -The Honolulu Star Bulletin

"...an
accurate, vivid, sometimes all too real account of...Marine combat
infantryman in Vietnam...fascinating...the most accurate written
description yet to have come out of the conflict..."        -The
Milwaukee Bugle American

"Sand in the Wind may just become the
All Quiet on the Western Front or The Naked and the Dead of the Vietnam
conflict....[T]he author's ear for dialogue, his eye for detail and his
faculty for descriptive incident offer an account of men at war that
would be just as credible if...published as [a]
nonfictional...journal."    -King Features Syndicate

"Roth
demonstrates in "Sand in the Wind" that a gifted writer can make [you]
believe. His novel is vividly realistic."        -The Sun

"...unforgettable....It's
all there, told with an honesty and directness that could only come out
of the diary of mud-slogging...rifleman."    -The Fresno Bee

"This
giant of a novel about men at war is one of sheer power, uncompromising
realism and staggering impact."        -The Abiline Reporter-News

"Sand in the Wind is a superb novel...a book that commands our heart."        -The Daily Reflector, Greenville, N.C.

"...a blistering, gut-busting giant among the war novels of our time."        -Genesis
