By Laura Hillenbrand who wrote Seabiscuit. Kept me up until 2 AM. Repetitive in parts, but for a good reason -- to pound in the fact that the WWll Pacific theater was so very different and in many ways more brutal than Europe for soldiers (not for Jews).
Humanizing and simultaneously reinforcing the horror of any war and the incredible resourcefulness of the human spirit under extreme stress.
Don't be dissuaded - you will appreciate the humor and creativity embedded throughout.
