[EAN: 9781931082051], Neubuch, [PU: The Library of America, New York], Paperback. Drawn from wartime newspaper and magazine reports, radio transcripts, and books, Reporting World War II captures the unfolding drama through the work of more than 50 writers, the best of a remarkable generation of reporters. Here are William L. Shirer and Howard K. Smith inside Nazi Germany; A J. Liebling on the fall of France and the Tunisian campaign; Edward R. Murrow on the London Blitz and Buchenwald; Ernie Pyle on the war in the foxholes. Margaret Bourke-White flies over the lines in Italy; Robert Sherrod and Tom Lea record the horrors of the Pacific war; Janet Flanner and Martha Gellhorn examine a defeated Germany. On the homefront, E. B. White visits a bond rally, James Agee reviews newsreels, and Roi Ottley exposes racism in the military. Included in full is Hiroshima, John Hersey's classic account of the first atomic bombing and its aftermath. In a time when public perceptions were shaped by the written and spoken word, war correspondents were often as influential as politicians and as celebrated as movie stars. Here, for the first time in paperback, the work of more than 50 remarkable reporters has been drawn from original newspaper and magazine reports, radio transcripts, and wartime books to capture the intensity of World War II's unfolding drama. This volume includes the work of Ernie Pyle, A. J. Liebling, E. B. White, William L. Shirer, John Steinbeck, Margaret Bourke-White, Edward R. Murrow, Martha Gellhorn, James Agee, John Hersey-whose Hiroshima appears in full-and many more. Also included are: A detailed chronology (1933-1945) Maps Profiles of the journalists Helpful notes A glossary of military terms, and Notes on the texts Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability., Books<
