Jack Carr immersed himself in historical research, including music, documentaries, and manuals from the 1960s, to authentically write a book set in that era.

I did a playlist for it, put on Spotify. So I was doing that. I was watching the Vietnam documentaries. I was reading everything I could possibly find on Vietnam from the day. There's old Army Special Forces manuals that they had before the guys would go over there that talked about the Montanard tribes they were going to be working with. For those that are watching or listening, it's like Apocalypse Now, like the Montanards, like tribes and all that stuff. So I was doing that. And then I was reading the more modern stuff too. I was reading things from the 70s, 80s. I got National Geographic magazines from the 60s. I think there's one from the late 50s even. So I was doing everything I possibly could to transport myself back, listening to some history podcasts about JFK, about Bobby Kennedy, Martin Luther King, things that were happening here about the election, Nixon's elections, everything that was happening in 1968. I was just trying to immerse myself in that world so that when I sat down to this, I didn't have to do a huge shift. And it would be, it was already had this, I was building on this foundation, whatever foundation I already had.
