Synopsis
Bill, the Galactic Hero is a satirical science fiction novel by Harry Harrison, first published in 1965. It is a retelling of the famous WWI anti-war novel The Good Soldier Švejk by Jaroslav Hašek, set in the future. The overall plot is most similar to Hašek's work, with the protagonist tricked into joining the army, and then sent on a succession of badly-organised adventures.

In hardcovers I specialize in small press, signed and limited editions.I have been a collector for over 50 years. I picture all of my items and describe anything that cannot be seen from the pics. I never use stock photos; all pics are the actual item. I securely pack and ship in boxes, never mailers.
