“Proxy War immerses us in a fascinating
yet chilling, romantic yet troubling story of love, war, heroism, confusion,
and intrigue. Against the disturbing backdrop and hidden truth about the
Vietnam War, E.L. Speed’s fascinating piece of historical fiction, Proxy War, tells the tale of two
dishonest and strong willed presidents, a young diplomat on the brink of
treason, and its star protagonist, a naval aviator and war hero. This hero,
living the moral dilemma of the period, is increasingly and dangerously
conflicted about his role in the War. Nevertheless, he puts his life on the
line daily as he fights a Proxy War
in the skies over Vietnam. Modern warfare and international affairs teach us
that a proxy war is a particular type of war, a war played out in someone else’s backyard in hopes of keeping it away
from home.
“Proxy War is indeed far, far more than
a war story. This is the timeless story of the search for honor, truth, and
dignity – all in the context of an intensely controversial war and a perilous
global Cold War reality, both landmark predicaments of those times. The reader
glimpses death as an acceptable solution but only if it is not meaningless.
Duty, a rather complex psychological phenomenon, provides the key to
understanding choices made, such as the choice to continue fighting while
questioning war’s very raison d’etre.”
