New York: W. W. Norton & Company, Date: 2003. First edition stated/second printing. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Adams, Eddie (Photographer). xxi, 404 pages. Illustrations. Citations. Introduction by General H. Norman Schwarzkopf (U. S. Army, Retired). Signed by actor Stephen Lang (Stonewall Jackson in Gods and Generals). DJ has slight wear and soiling, with sticker residue at barcode. Small mark to bottom edge. Collection of interviews with recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor, the military's highest recognition for valor. Two dozen men from various races and walks of life talk about their battlefield experiences. All exhibit a marked modesty about receiving their medals, as they uniformly regard their fighting actions as unexceptional under fearsome, noisy, blood-spattered conditions. They emphasize instead the men who didn't survive--a high proportion of Medals of Honor have been conferred posthumously--while expressing mild incredulity at being singled out for distinction. The do-or-die details Smith induces from his interlocutors convey a quality of bravery beyond the call of duty. A visceral volume that will arrest readers of military affairs. 2003. W. W. Norton & Company ISBN 039305134x 9780393051346 [US]
