À propos de ce produit

Product Information

They are the men of C-for-Charlie company--"Mad" 1st Sgt. Eddie Welsh, Pvt. 1st Class Don Doll, Pvt. John Bell, Capt. James Stein, Cpl. Fife, and dozens more just like them--infantrymen who are about to land, grim and white-faced, on an atoll in the Pacific called Guadalcanal. This is their story, a shatteringly realistic walk into hell and back. In the days ahead, some will earn medals, others will do anything they can dream up to get evacuated before they land in a muddy grave. But they will all discover the thin red line that divides the sane from the mad--and the living from the dead--in this unforgettable portrait that captures for all time the total experience of men at war. Foreword by Francine Prose "Brutal, direct, and powerful . . . The men are real, the words are real, death is real, imminent and immediate."-- Los Angeles Times "A rare and splendid accomplishment . . . strong and ambitious, spacious, and as honest as any novel ever written."-- Newsweek " A] major novel of combat in World War II . . . reminiscent of Stephen Crane in The Red Badge of Courage ."-- The Christian Science Monitor " The Thin Red Line moves so intensely and inexorably that it almost seems like the war it is describing."-- The New York Times Book Review

  • The Thin Red Line

    I was born in the x-USSR republic - The Ukraine. In the USSR the WW II was usually called "The Great Patriotic War", now more and more Ukrainians tend to calling it "World War II". In school, teachers when telling us about the War always told us about the heroism of the soldiers who stood up to attack shouting loudly "For Stalin!" or "If I die think of me as a communist"... Which of you can imagine your father or grand-father running in attack crying "For Stalin!"? I can't, I can't even believe it. This book tells the truth which we had never read in the soviet books. You can't think about a stalin facing the coming death, people think about their mothers, fathers, sisters, wives... when they die on the battlefield. Not about a mythological stalin who has never cared and won't ever care ...

  • THIN RED LINE

    the story of this book is fiction that is not to say that the events in the book may not have happen in much the same way as the author tells it. the story is set on Guadalcanal and is told from the U.S.Armys point of veiw.The author tells the side of the enlisted man, from ship to shore,jungle to mud,mud to hill.The book has a real feel to it that leaves the reader smelling the jungle.A must for anyone interested in the war in the pacific.

  • Reference to the thin red battle lines...

    I am collecting items pertaining to Guadalcanal during WWII where my Father served with the 132nd Army Infantry. Any background information, relics etc. are giving me a better understanding of his time there. He was shot through both legs by a Japanese sniper and partially paralyzed during the campaign, he never spoke of his time there.

    Have not read it yet however the book looks in good shape. I prefer hard bound books verses paper back. I like to keep the books I read to refer back to them. My Father fought in the South Pacific Marine he survived Iwo Jima one of 25 soldiers 5,000 went on he got to walk off
