About This Audiobook

Death in the Highlands is not your typical Vietnam War narrative. It delves into the often overlooked West-Central Highlands, where the communist North saw an opportunity to strike a decisive blow. Saliba's meticulous research brings a fresh perspective, painting a vivid picture of the region's strategic importance and the brutal fighting that ensued. Jim Seybert's narration is a standout, his steady, authoritative voice capturing the gravitas of the subject matter. It's like having a seasoned historian recounting tales from the frontlines.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to Death in the Highlands is like being immersed in a history lesson that's as engaging as it is enlightening. Seybert's narration is exceptional, his ability to switch between accents and tones making each character distinct. The pacing is steady, allowing the story to unfold naturally, with no rush to get through the details. The production is clean, with no distractions from the story. My only critique is that at times, the sheer volume of names and places can be overwhelming, but it's a small price to pay for such a comprehensive account. If you're interested in the Vietnam War beyond the big battles, this is a must-listen.
