Pages : 0
Book Description
Drawing on a vast array of original source material that has survived for decades and previously classified information, this thrilling narrative history documents a young soldier’s miraculous survival in war-torn Europe during World War II. Soon after joining the U.S. Army Corps, a wiry, baby-faced 17-year-old found himself a seasoned warrior desperately battling head-to-head against the Luftwaffe’s best fighter pilots over Nazi Germany. Having amazingly escaped the fiery wreckage of his B-17, he relied on his ingenuity and determination to get him through two bitter winters in confinement as a POW in the infamous Stalag 17. Along with other American prisoners, he was coerced to flee the rapidly advancing Red Army as the European war came to a close and endure a brutal 18-day march where he witnessed firsthand the horrors of the Mauthausen concentration camp. Weighing an emaciated 110 pounds, he was finally rescued by Patton’s Third Army just days before Germany surrendered.

WWII
Author: James Jones
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022618093X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
James Jones, the novelist best known for his WWII trilogy "From Here to Eternity" (Nat l Book Award, 1952) "The Thin Red Line," and "Whistle," was chosen to write the text accompanying a coffee-table book of art from WWII edited by Art Weithas in 1975. That book was a best-seller and used copies are still available on line, but the images make it impossible to reprint. We are bringing back James Jones s extraordinary text, which stands well on its own as his only non-fiction account of his experiences as a soldier in WWII. The book is also a compact, unflinching history of the war told from the point of view of the men who fought it."
