One highly regarded book that tells the story of the Vietnam War from the American perspective is "The Things They Carried" by Tim O'Brien. It is a collection of interconnected short stories that draw heavily on O'Brien's own experiences as a soldier in Vietnam. The book provides a unique and personal view of the war, exploring themes such as memory, guilt, and the effects of trauma.

Another classic book on the subject is "Dispatches" by Michael Herr. The book is a collection of Herr's observations and experiences as a war correspondent in Vietnam. It provides a gritty and visceral depiction of the war and its impact on those involved, and has been praised for its honesty and authenticity.

Lastly, "A Bright Shining Lie: John Paul Vann and America in Vietnam" by Neil Sheehan is a Pulitzer Prize-winning book that focuses on the life and experiences of John Paul Vann, a US Army officer who served in Vietnam. The book provides a detailed and nuanced view of the war, and explores the complexities and contradictions of US involvement in Vietnam.

All three of these books offer powerful and thought-provoking perspectives on the Vietnam War from the American side.
