And next is what I think is one of the best books ever written on the Vietnam War, and this is Dispatches by Michael Herr. This is very literary in the sense that Michael Herr is a fantastic writer.

This was probably one of my first non-fiction books I've ever read in my life and it just totally floored me. Even if you're not into the outdoors, you're not into hiking, you're not into mountaineering, I think you will be very drawn in by this story because Krakauer writes it in such a compelling way.

And this book has one of the most mind-blowing endings, I think, of any nonfiction that I've read. It's, again, very narrative-based. It could be considered like fiction-esque, but it's all true stories, which makes it really interesting.
