Bill Mauldin

Report of the war front in Korea in 1952 in a series of letters.

The foxhole history of the American soldier in World War II, by two-time Pulitzer Prize winning cartoonist Bill Mauldin.

Kieran Addison ran to London six years before when his attraction to his brothers lover, Jordan Salter, became too much to handle. He has only returned home once, and that was for his own brother's funeral. When his dad becomes ill, he finally returns home for good, to take over the family business. He has to face the man that Jordan has become and the attraction between them that has never diminished. Resentment and regret build, but when Addison Construction takes on a make or break renovation project, the two men are forced to work alongside each other to save the company.

"First published in 1949, nothing quite like this volume of personal history has ever appeared--except for Mauldin's recent sequel to this book, The Brass Ring: A Sort of a Memoir, which was an instant success and a Book-of-the-Month Club Selection. We have here a notable piece of Americana: To read it is to learn what it was like to be a boy in a family in New Mexico in the '20s, a family which always managed to be broke. Pop, whose 'projects,' as he liked to call them, included everything from tourist cabins and gold mines to the dynamiting of swamps, is the dominant character. Pop's two sons, Bill and Sid, and his uncomplaining wife make up the supporting cast. And support they do. Mauldin's first memory is (at the age of three) of being seated on the bank of a small Mexican river smoking a pack of pilfered cigarettes. With some connection made between nicotine and memory, the saga of an unorthodox childhood flows on--'its grest virtue ... Mauldinian simplicity, and unstinging bluntness.'--The New York Times. Bill Mauldin is the syndicated political cartoonist for the Chicago Sun-Times. He is the winner of two Pulitzer Prizes and many other professional awards, and is the author of numerous books, including The Brass Ring and Up Front, a national bestseller. He lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and Chicago."--Dust jacket of 1972 reprint.
