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. 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.
