About This Item
New York: Free Press, 1997 0684827972. First edition. First printing of first hardback edition. Complete Numberline. Fine in unclipped DW but the back inside flap has obviously been folded over at some point causing a crease. Otherwise it is as new. 408 pages including index. Military history of a scholarly but eminently readable variety. "...highly original social history, authoritatively recovering and capturing the full experience of combat...Based on a vast array of letters, diaries, books, and a survey of veterans in the Army War College, (it) cuts through the many layers of the protective shielding in soldiers' memoirs to find the shards of direct experience that lie beneath." Reveals the real nature of war as perceived here by Americans, but really a universal truth. .
