description: "War is hell." Sherman said it more than 150 years ago. Paul Fussell is with Sherman. His experience with war, the infantry in Europe during the closing months of WW II, set his mind against it. His literary work debunks the notion of war as adventure. WARTIME dissects our participation in WW II. He claims as it's casualities honesty, individuality, complexity and wit. He believes we never really understood the war, and in this book blasts our myths about it.
