Here Is Your War

304 pp. 8vo. Includes endorsement by John Steinbeck on rear jacket flap. Ernie Pyle, probably the greatest journalist who ever lived, presents his best work from the American campaign in North Africa. Through Ernie's words, we see how life was like in WWII for the average soldier. Ernie never cared for raving on about generals and admirals -- just the average "Joe." His books read like the greatest screenplays. And yet they are not fiction. They are real stories, memoirs, recollections, biographies of hundreds of soldiers. His book is a living, breathing echo of America's blood and tears in World war II. A must for any journalist, journalism student or anyone interested in World War II and military history
