'Moves so intensely and inexorably that it almost seems like the
war it is describing' The New York Times Book Review 'Is it really
worth it to die, to be dead, just to prove to everybody that you're
not a coward?' On Guadalcanal in the south Pacific, the soldiers of
C Company are about to enter the war. The men know they face their
baptism of fire. But none know if they will be one of 'the lucky
ones' to make it safely off the island. From Captain Stein, who
feels like a father to his troops, and 'Mad' Sergeant Welsh,
condemning all nations while swigging gin from his canteen, to
Private Bell, who just wants to get home to his wife, they will
discover the line that divides sanity from madness, and life from
death. A scathing critique of heroism, The Thin Red Line is among
the greatest masterpieces of war writing. 'The men are real, the
words are real, death is real, imminent and immediate' Los Angeles
Times
