Fiction Adventure
The World War II classic by the bestselling author of From Here to Eternity and Whistle, now a major motion picture from 20th Century Fox.
They are the men of C-for-Charlie Company--"Mad" 1st/Sgt. Eddie Welsh, S/Sgt. Don Doll, Pvt. John Bell, Capt. James Stein, Cpl. Fife, and dozens more just like them--infantrymen in "this man's army" who are about to land grim and white- faced on an atoll in the Pacific called Guadalcanal.Β Β This is their story, a shatteringly realistic walk into hell and back.Β Β
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.Β Β 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.Β Β
