When Michael Herr went to Vietnam in 1967 as a correspondent forEsquirehe was a virtually unknown writer. But he quickly became a celebrated author after the publication of his famous article «Hellish tastes», andhisreputationgrew with the steady appearance of more of his works. War Dispatchesconfirmedwhat his first admirers had seen: no one has written, nor will probably ever write, such an eloquent vigorous and terrifying account of what it was like to fight (and survive) in that ghostly war. Many books have been written about Vietnam, but this book is unique: a timeless work of bravery that will remain among the best books ever written about men at war. This masterpiece of New Journalism won the International Press Award in 1978. / Cuando Michael Herr fue a Vietnam en 1967 como corresponsal de Esquire era un escritor prácticamente desconocido. Pero fue unánimemente alabado tras publicar su famoso artículo «Sorbos infernales», y su reputación fue en aumento con la progresiva aparición de más trabajos suyos. Despachos de guerra confirmó lo que ya sabían sus primeros admiradores: nadie ha escrito ni es probable que llegue a escribir de modo tan elocuente, vigoroso y aterrador sobre lo que fue combatir (y sobrevivir) en aquella guerra espectral. Se han escrito muchos libros sobre Vietnam, pero este libro es único: es una obra de valor perenne que figurará entre los mejores textos sobre hombres en guerra. Esta obra maestra del nuevo periodismo recibió el Premio Internacional de la Prensa en 1978.
