<s>[INST] Can you recommend a good book about the Vietnam war? That is telling the story from the American side. [/INST] We Were Soldiers Once...and Young: la Drang - The Battle That Changed the War in Vietnam is a 1992 book by Lt. Gen. Harold G. Moore and war journalist Joseph L. Galloway</s>\ <s>[INST] What good English books can you recommend that portray the other side of the war? [/INST] I would recommend "The Sorrow of War" by Bao Ninh. It's a semi-autobiographical story about a North Vietnamese soldier who fought in the war. I think it gives a very powerful and human perspective on what the war was like from the other side. It's a very sad story, but I think it's important to hear those perspectives as well.</s>
