A classic compilation read by many G.I.'s when first published in 1942. In assembling this collection of the greatest war stories of all time, Ernest Hemingway has given a rare glimpse into history. Hemingway, himself, made his way to WWII in 1944 as a war correspondent w/variously debated stories of his involvement (leading soldiers in battle) and acts of heroism. Presented here are incidents of battle which do not extol wars, but rather the men whose blood and heroism determine their outcome. We stand with the valiant Greeks at Thermopylae, hurl ouselves forward with the French lancers at Austerlitz, bleed with the heroes of the Alamo, and shout our determination at the flame-filled skies over Pearl Harbor. We are side-by-side with men of all nations, as their gallantry burns into history's pages! ". an ordered picture of the immense disorder of war." - NY Herald Tribune. 1072 pages. Insured post.
