From the brand new York Times best-selling author Joe Weber comes an exciting novel from the Vietnam War.

Marine pilot Brad Austin and his carrier-based F-4 Phantom group journey into the heart of enemy territory daily without dread, but the guidelines of engagement impede them nearly as much as the North Vietnamese. Restricted from attacking the enemy’s MiG bases, Austin as well as the additional American pilots are susceptible to assault without the ability to retaliate, a weakness that tragically leads to the death of about Rules of Engagement Austin’s wingman. Consumed by the necessity to avenge his comrade, Austin will go one-on-one using the enemy within a battle that ultimately proves in war there may be no guidelines.

In a fast-paced, thrilling look into the life of a Vietnam War fighter pilot, Joe Weber requires us high in to the flack-filled skies above Hanoi and shows us the air war as only a veteran fighter pilot can.

Joe Weber ‘will an admirable work of evoking in such readers a visceral knowledge of the restrictions that precluded success in Vietnam. In Guidelines of Engagement, Weber’s politics points will hit close to home, and they’ll strengthen the take care of of many, such as myself, who are motivated never to permit the errors of Vietnam to be repeated.’—Senator John McCain

‘Weber’s writing has a great deal of panache. His knowledge of military hardware is amazing, and his edge-of-the-seat scenes are exciting.’—The Publication Reader
