This is a beautiful copy of a scarce book. Filled with dark humor, it tells the story of an American Battalion stationed in Germany during peacetime. Vietnam is in the past. Base life is marked by indolence and fear, and 'slacking' is the most highly prized art form. This is 'the Fighting 57th', where the only gestures toward the notion of war are infrequent target practice, forced marches, and mock battles via laser tag. It is a fast, powerful, and funny novel reminiscent of Heller's Catch-22. This copy is in Fine condition and is in a beautiful Fine dust jacket. The book was published in 1993. We are always happy to send pictures on request.
