Descrizione

171 pages. Signed and inscribed by author and illustrator upon front free endpaper. "This book is not a history piece. The tidbits of historical fact sprinkled herein are incidental to our real purpose. For we are not trying merely to inform you, we want to take it a step further. We hope rather to move you, to help you sense and feel the pulse, the beat and the drama of those times. The images and words are offered as a celebration of the excitement and romance of an era and a people whose resourcefulness and courage are worthy of great tribute." - from Introduction. Dozens of superb colour photos and several wonderful colour reproductions of wartime posters. Clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear. Price-clipped dust jacket preserved in archival-grade Brodart cover. Excellent copy. Book
