Paul Baumer enlisted with his classmates in the German army of
World War I. Youthful, enthusiastic, they become soldiers. But
despite what they have learned, they break into pieces under the
first bombardment in the trenches. And as horrible war plods on
year after year, Paul holds fast to a single vow: to fight against
the principles of hate that meaninglessly pits young men of the
same generation but different uniforms against each other--if only
he can come out of the war alive.@lt;br@gt;"The world has a great
writer in Erich Maria Remarque. He is a craftsman of unquestionably
first trank, a man who can bend language to his will. Whether he
writes of men or of inanimate nature, his touch is sensitive, firm,
and sure."@lt;br@gt;THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
