In the library of grittily written books on the Vietnam War, Tom "Bud" Abraham's The Cage is something different. Bud Abraham was one of the very few Englishmen who served in Vietnam. In the late 60s he took part in some of the most carnage-filled battles of the war as an officer in the first Cavalry Division. His courage gained him a slew of medals, and he even obtained one of the most prestigious decorations awarded by the American army, the Silver Star. Abraham's ability to convey his own extreme psychological state is astonishing, but not just in terms of the Vietnam War: the book is equally involving when Abraham takes us on to the events that nearly destroyed his life 30 years after the conflict, when he had returned to England.
