The Gun And The Pen : Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Faulkner, And The Fiction Of Mobilization
Attribution
Keith GandalPublication Details
BookOxford University Press2008Description
By bringing to light previously unexamined archival records of the Army, The Gun and the Pen demonstrates that the frustration of these authors’ military ambitions took place in the forgotten context of a whole new set of methods employed in the mobilization for the Great War–unprecedented procedures that aimed to transform the Army into a meritocratic institution, indifferent to ethnic and class difference (though not racial, or black-white, difference).

Occupational Hazards : Success And Failure In Military Occupation
Attribution
David M. EdelsteinPublication Details
BookCornell University Press2008Description

The Wehrmacht : History, Myth, Reality
Attribution
Wolfram Wette ; translated by Deborah Lucas SchneiderPublication Details
BookHarvard University Press2006Description
This book is a profound reexamination of the role of the German army, the Wehrmacht, in World War II. Until very recently, the standard story avowed that the ordinary German soldier in World War II was a good soldier, distinct from Hitler’s rapacious SS troops, and not an accomplice to the massacres of civilians. This sober indictment of millions of German soldiers reaches beyond the Wehrmacht’s complicity to examine how German academics and ordinary citizens avoided confronting this difficult truth at war’s end.
