Nothing prepares young American Martin Howe for the horror and the slaughter that he finds in the trenches of the Western Front in France during the First World War. Dos Passos's novella must be the finest account in English of the sheer chaos and murderous inhumanity of the First World War.

About the Author:
John Dos Passos (1896-1970) was born in Chicago and graduated from Harvard in 1916. His service as an ambulance driver in Europe at the end of World War I led him to write "Three Soldiers" in 1919. A prolific travel writer, biographer, playwright, and novelist, he is an American classic of the twentieth century.
Review:
Few reviewers and readers took note of 'One Man's Initiation, 1917' upon its initial appearance, but Dos Passos's personal tale of the carnage of war and his own survival as a volunteer ambulance driver over the battlefields of France and Italy in 1917speaks vividly to readers of the 21st century 'lest we forget.'> (Virginia Spencer Carr, biographer of Dos Passos, A Life, Paul Bowles: A Life, The Lonely Hunter: A Biography of Carson McCullers, and Under)

I think Dos Passos came closer than any of us to writing the great American novel. 'One Man's Initiation: 1917' is one the exciting precursors. (Norman Mailer)
