“When I was eighteen, Uncle Sam told me he’d like me to put
on a uniform and go off to fight a guy by the name of
Adolf. So I did.”
When Alan Cope joined the army and went off to fight in
World War II, he had no idea what he was getting into.
This graphic memoir is the story of his life during
wartime, a story told with poignant intimacy and matchless
artistry.
Across a generation, a deep friendship blossomed between
Alan Cope and author/artist Emmanuel Guibert. From it,
Alan’s War was born – a graphic novel that is a deeply
personal and moving experience, straight from the heart of
the Greatest Generation – a unique piece of WWII literature
and a ground-breaking graphic memoir.
