About This Item
USA: University of Illinois Press, 1999. Book. Fine. Hardcover. Signed by Author(s). First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Signed and dated by author upon title page. 230 pages. Black and white illustrations. "Provides Dannenmaier's narrative account of his combat experiences, including a vivid re-creation of the bloody battle for Outpost Harry, which he describes as 'trivial and insignificant - except to the men who fought it.' Describes the frustration of men on the front lines who never saw their commanding superiors, the exhaustion of soldiers whose long-promised leaves never materialized, the transitory friendships and shared horrors that left indelible memories. A tribute to the Americans who served in a conflict that has only recently begun to gain a place in official public memory." - from dust jacket. Book clean, bright and unmarked with negligible wear. Light wear to dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A nice copy..
