Sobre este item
World Publishing Company, 1946. First edition thus. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Mauldin, Bill. Firs Forum Books printing, very good hardcover shows light bit of soil to covers, bumping to corners, name at top of front endpaper, bit of tearing at rear inner hinge and mild browning to pages common with these World editions, in very good dust jacket that shows rubbing, bit of toning and edgewear that includes tiny chips and tears. 228 pages nicely illustrated. Still a solid copy in jacket of this work on the foot soldier in WW II from the legendary American editorial cartoonist.

Em Jul 10 2007, SDENNEY disse:
This is the story of World War II as seen through the eyes of 'everyman GI' Joe and Willie. "He knows, as no one can who hasn't been there, that Willie and Joe, with their unshaven faces, their damp, soggy fatigue suits, their shoulders sagging under rain-soaked combat packs, are our fighten men, the guys who have been up front in France, or Italy or Burma, for a couple of straight months or years. Mauldin knows their gripes, their jokes, their opinions, their fears, and he records their talk with the most pungent accuracy. He has caught their life so vividly that it is no wonder he is their favorite." Do you remember Willie & Joe in the newspapers or Stars & Stripes? Or did your Dad or Granddad talk about them?
