Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: fine. First Printing. 8vo, 233, [ii] pages, cloth Signed by Sabel, and dated 1999, under the portrait frontispiece. Sabel enlisted in April, 1941, and served three years as an officer in the Army Corps of Engineers in the Pacific. His 300 letters home offer a different view of the war - not of heroics and battle, but of war's tedium, discomfort, and inefficiency. Bored but never boring, Sabel is frank in his criticism of those in command as he is in affectionately scolding his mother for sending such perishables as strawberries and chocolate to the tropics. A farmer from Marshall County, Indiana, Sabel also managed a farm on Kalumbangara to supply the hospital an Munda with fresh fruits and vegetables.
