What's the most shocking non-fiction book you ever read?

[Rudee]

For me it had to be the Motley Crue autobiography "The Dirt". The stuff those guys got away with back in the 80's makes the stuff bands do today pale in comparison. It's one of those books that you have a hard time believing because it's almost unbelievable, but it's all true.

Will do. If you're into books about the Vietnam war. Check out:

Ripcord : Screaming Eagles Under Siege, Vietnam 1970

One of the best books I read about the war.
