New York: D. Appleton-Century, 1943. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. First edition. Owner name, and a touch of soiling on the boards, a near fine copy in a not quite very good dustwrapper with sunning at the spine, slight loss, a small stain at the crown, and some other small chips and tears. Second WWII novel by the author of the hard-boiled classic *I Wake Up Screaming*. A wartime book that apparently got little distribution. Basis for the excellent 1944 Delmer Daves-directed film featuring Cary Grant, John Garfield, and Alan Hale. Considered one of the best, and most action-filled WWII films, it remains a classic war drama to this day.
