From the Back Cover:
A book for the generations. In lean, quick, and ultimately eloquent prose Leo Litwak tells the truth about WWII. He speaks with a young man's toughness about events as they were. (Earl Shorris, author of Latinos and New American Blues)

A "brutal and yet frequently uplifting saga of war. There are no 'good guys' or 'bad guys' here, although the presence of both good and evil is constant. Instead, we witness ordinary men, most of them quite young, striving to survive a conflict that few of them understand. A disturbing, revealing, and very important glimpse of warfare." (Booklist)

"Litwak's timing is compelling, his characters are vivid, memorable, and real, and his story is laced with humor and insight." (Molly Giles, author of Iron Shoes and Rough Translations)

"The Medic is immensely moving, restoring to freshness a period fast disappearing into myth." (Herbert Gold, author of Daughter Mine)

About the Author:
Leo Litwak taught English literature at San Francisco State University for more than thirty years and is the author of the novel Waiting for the News, which won the 1970 National Jewish Book Award. His short story "The Eleventh Edition" was awarded first prize in the 1990 edition of Stories: The O. Henry Awards.
