This magnificent collection ranges in setting from the Boer War to Vietnam, from the sodden trenches of WWI to the Atlantic convoys of WW2, from the home front to the combat zone and from the brutal realism of Norman Mailer’s GIs on patrol behind Japanese lines to the poetic tragedy of Alun Lewis’s Blitz story ‘ They Came’.
With over 50 stories from writers of all nations, this book will reveal the intoxicating excitement of battle and both the sorrow and pity of war.
