Brave Men by Ernie Pyle 1944 First Edition 1st Printing Stated HC/DJ Henry Holt

Description: BRAVE MEN By Ernie Pyle 1944 First Edition, 1st Printing Henry Holt and Company New York Hardcover & Dust Jacket 474 pages Europe was in the throes of World War II, and when America joined the fighting, Ernie Pyle went along. Long before television beamed daily images of combat into our living rooms, Pyle’s on-the-spot reporting gave the American public a firsthand view of what war was like for the boys on the front. Pyle followed the soldiers into the trenches, battlefields, field hospitals, and beleaguered cities of Europe. What he witnessed he described with a clarity, sympathy, and grit that gave the public back home an immediate sense of the foot soldier’s experience. First Edition and stated First Printing, unlike some sellers who try and pass this book off as a First/1st without "First Printing" on the publisher's page. (The last buyer who bought one of these "non-first printing" got duped out of fifty bucks!) There is another listed currently for $31.99 that is NOT a first printing. Don't settle for less - buy the real thing! This copy has some obvious dust jacket flaws (tears), but the book is in very good condition. 5 3/4" x 8 5/8" x 1 1/4"
