An incredible publishing story--written over the course of thirty years by a highly decorated Vietnam veteran, a New York Times best seller for sixteen weeks, a National Indie Next and a USA Today best seller--Matterhorn has been hailed as a "brilliant account of war" (New York Times Book Review). Now out in paperback, Matterhorn is an epic war novel in the tradition of Norman Mailer's The Naked and the Dead and James Jones's The Thin Red Line. It is the timeless story of a young Marine lieutenant, Waino Mellas, and his comrades in Bravo Company, who are dropped into the mountain jungle of Vietnam as boys and forced to fight their way into manhood. Standing in their way are not merely the North Vietnamese but also monsoon rain and mud, leeches and tigers, disease and malnutrition. Almost as daunting, it turns out, are the obstacles they discover between each other: racial tension, competing ambitions, and duplicitous superior officers. But when the company finds itself surrounded and outnumbered by a massive enemy regiment, the Marines are thrust into the raw and all-consuming terror of combat. The experience will change them forever. Matterhorn is a visceral and spellbinding novel about what it is like to be a young man at war. It is an unforgettable novel that transforms the tragedy of Vietnam into a powerful and universal story of courage, camaraderie, and sacrifice: a parable not only of the war in Vietnam but of all war, and a testament to the redemptive power of literature.Binding Type: Paperback

Delicious fresh Blueberries at a fraction of the price!
Size: 1 PT
Absolutely delicious, and so much less expensive than at the store!!
Beautiful plump Blueberries that taste great!
At first I wasn't sure, since they cost so much less than at any store, but I decided to try them just in case they turned out to be good, and to leave a review for others.
They came inside a foil-interior brown bag, each with rubber bands to keep them closed (great idea) and with a frozen water bottle to help keep them cool! That was a very nice added bonus.

Fresh and Sweet Strawberries with Good Texture
Size: 16 OZ
The 1 lb package of strawberries arrived fresh with a bright color and appealing appearance. The berries had a good balance of sweetness and natural tartness, making them enjoyable on their own or added to yogurt, smoothies, cereal, or desserts. 🍓
The texture was firm without being overly hard, and most of the strawberries were a good size with minimal bruising. They rinsed easily and stayed fresh for several days when refrigerated properly.
The 1 lb container provides a convenient amount for snacking or sharing. Overall, these strawberries offered good freshness, flavor, and versatility for everyday use.

Great price, fresh, good flavor. Will order again.
Size: 16 OZ
I took a chance, ordered 2, and was pleasantly surprised by these. Great price, and amazing flavor. 90% of them were ripe and ready to eat. Plump, good size strawberries. They for all healthy and moist as they should be, not one was dried out or starting to go bad. I will buy them again from Amazon now that I know they have quality strawberries to deliver. They were "durable" and survived the delivery to the porch just fine. Yummy!
