An “important book . . . at times mordantly funny, at others sparking with anger.”–The Washington Post

“As with his cartooning, Danziger pulls no punches with his description of his time in the service and Vietnam.” — The Florida Times-Union
“A must-read war memoir . . . with zero punches pulled, related by one of the most incisive observers of the American political scene.” — KIRKUS (starred review)
“In clear language he [Danziger] describes both the horrors and absurdities of war and the toll it takes on a soldier. — The Rutland Herald
“Brilliant political cartoonist Jeff Danziger has written a crackerjack new book…The book is a rollicking, honest, cynical and, at times, tragic recollection of that dreadful and deceitful war.” — Valley News
“Danziger’s new book isn’t merely a recollection of a tumultuous time in his youth; it also passionately engages our political situation now.” — Seven Days
“Lieutenant Dangerous is a forthright, brutally honest memoir of one American’s experiences during the time of the Vietnam War.” —The North Star Monthly
