Published by William Sloane Associates, New York, NY (1947) 315 pages / 6 x 9 inches A quick preview of BACK HOME by Bill Mauldin ( A report by John P. Marquand ) Small booklet included This book shouts what millions of Americans are murmuring about the condition of the world after the war, what is going on in the occupied and defeated countries, and the cheats on the loose in the post-war economic boom. Great book describing how a soldier, Mauldin, adjusts to the post-war peace time theater of the American democracy. Wonderfully written with corresponding cartoons to emphasize his point, Mauldin tells a true and opinionated tale of life in the United States. Bill Mauldin served in combat in World War II and became a chronicler of the military life of the infantrymen and the lower ranks. Blue-green cloth with white lettering on spine. Black and white dust jacket in good condition. Intact and tight. Bumped corners and some edge wear with slight soiling to page ends. Overall very good. Please see photos, enlarge and email with any questions prior to purchase. Thanks for looking. |
