Dust Jacket: Very Good Hardcover: Near Fine "If I Die in a Combat Zone, Box Me Up and Ship Me Home (sometimes printed as If I Die In A Combat Zone or incorrectly as If I Die in a Combat Zone, Box Me Up and Send Me Home) is an autobiographical account of Tim O'Brien's tour of duty in the Vietnam War. It was published in 1973 in the United States by Delacorte and in Great Britain by Calder and Boyars Ltd. It has subsequently been reprinted by multiple publishers under both titles, most commonly in the latter. William Timothy O'Brien (born October 1, 1946) is an American novelist who served as a soldier in the Vietnam War. He is best known for his book The Things They Carried (1990), a collection of linked semi-autobiographical stories inspired by O'Brien's wartime experiences. In 2010, The New York Times described the latter as " a classic of contemporary war fiction."In addition, O'Brien is acclaimed for his war novel, Going After Cacciato (1978), which received the National Book Award.".
