A propos du livre

Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.

From Chapter 1: When people ask me how come the army assigned me to a cannon company, I say; It's because I'm a painter by trade. I'm used to working on ladders. They say; Huh? And I say; How does anyone know why the army does things?
