The Gun And The Pen : Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Faulkner, And The Fiction Of Mobilization

Attribution
Keith Gandal
Publication Details
Book, Oxford University Press, 2008
Description
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). (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)
