Knick and Knack are brothers who were born into an upper–middle-class family during the first half of the 1950s. Their lives were dominated with television, comic books, and mysterious new media accounts that take the brothers into the realm of mind-altering synthetic substances along with the electric hard-rock music and the Vietnam War. This comic tragedy continues on and concludes in the wilds of Baja, California. Jack Liddle represents the irrepressible optimist. His positive mental demeanor, which he inherited from his father, is the focal point of his life. No matter what depths of despair he finds himself, he manages to return to where he resonates best: positive thinking. As the story progresses, Jack technically upgrades himself, which allows him to move forward, whereas most people his age become tranquil as they relive their past. With the advent of the Internet, Jack attracts an audience who follows his adventures and, ultimately, a grand misadventure.

This is the story of how it came about: two young mavericks who turned technology on its head, the bitter battles as each tried to stamp his vision on the future and the ruthless brilliance and fierce commitment.

"At the height of the U.S. Navy's involvement in the Vietnam War, the Navy's coastal and riverine forces included more than 30,000 Sailors and over 350 patrol vessels ranging in size from riverboats to destroyers. These forces developed the most extensive maritime blockade in modern naval history and fought pitched battles against Viet Cong units in the Mekong Delta and elsewhere. War in the Shallows explores the operations of the Navy's three inshore task forces from 1965 to 1968. It also delves into other themes such as basing, technology, tactics, and command and control. Finally, using oral history interviews, it reconstructs deckplate life in South Vietnam, focusing in particular on combat waged by ordinary Sailors. Vietnam was the bloodiest war in recent naval history and War in the Shallows strives above all else to provide insight into the men who fought it and honor their service and sacrifice"--Publisher description
