Author: Paul Fussell

Format: Hardback

Number of Pages: 960


In sections ranging from outstanding works of fiction, to poems and simple letters home, this book presents the voices of the 20th century's major conflicts - the two World Wars, the Spanish Civil War and those in Korea and Vietnam. The greater power of weapons has made killing a more efficient but more macabre event, and this anthology consists of moments on the battlefields, captured in the words of those who faced wars in their newest and most brutal permutation. The contributors include great writers such as Rudyard Kipling, Wilfred Owen and Norman Mailer - and also the humble squaddies.
