Beschreibung

1st printing with unclipped dust jacket. Jacket is in fair to good condition with loss to the bottom of the jacket spine and chipped to the top and corners and a few repaired tears along edges. The book itself is in very good clean condition throughout. The novel is set in occupied Germany following the end of World War II, the lead character is a black American soldier who re-enlists in the Army as a means of escaping the oppression of Harlem. The story exposes the racial prejudice and hatred experienced by many Black soldiers in WWII and the characters constant battle against authority which eventually leads him into desertion and a life of crime (see jacket flaps in photos) A stunning novel by the author of "Aftermath" who experienced much of the same hostility while serving in the US Army in Europe both during and immediately after World War II.
