Newly released! The long-awaited Goswitz historical Vietnam novel, The Dragon Soldier's Good

YOUNG HARRIS, Ga. - July 30, 2018 - PRLog -- Newly released! The long-awaited Robert Goswitz's historical Vietnam novel, The Dragon Soldier's Good Fortune!

An ancient king of Vietnam commanded his subjects to cover their arms and thighs with dragon tattoos. The accepted belief of the time was that the Dragon Spirit protected farmers against evil spirits in their rice paddies.

In 1971, Private Ed Lansky seeks protection from a different form of evil, Something to guide him through his year in country. Each time the war tries to kill him or burden him with guilt, the dragon appears, guarding and guiding him. A weight lifts from his soul as he discovers the power of the Dragon Spirit… his Warrior Shield.

Although this is a work of fiction, much of what happens comes directly from Goswitz's personal accounts, making it ever so real in the mind's eye of the reader. Commendable writing of a turbulent time in American and Vietnam history. The Dragon Soldier's Good Fortune endorsements and reviews
