Title: Beachhead Don
Description: "Beachhead Don brings together the best work by one of the greatest of all American war correspondents, Donald Ford Whitehead. Whitehead was the Associated Press's man in Europe - covering men in battle from the deserts of North Africa and hilltops of Italy to the beaches of Normandy and the final deadly slog across the Rhine to Berlin. Now in a book for the first time, these dispatches from the front are masterpieces of storytelling. These words brought Americans face to face with the daily horrors - and the triumphs - of the war in Europe." "This book is a long-overdue celebration of Whitehead's craft and a unique look at history on the ground and at sea. "Beachhead Don"'s unforgettable stories of battles fought and men in combat are enduring classics of American journalism and an extraordinary record of a world at war."--BOOK JACKET.
