Hardcover first published in Great Britain 1964 by Jonathan Cape. The paper jacket is price-clipped and edge-worn in places, with several creases, chips and small tears, and the spine is sunned, and possibly had water spilled on it at some point. The boards are clean and square, with minor bumps to the corners. Though generally aged, apart from a small mark on the first endpaper, all pages are clean and unmarked. "This big, robust novel tells the story of an American negro company in the Second World War, from its basic training in Georgia to the hellish war in the Pacific and to a mutiny in which coloured soldiers shoot it out with white soldiers in an Australian city."
