Back Home by Bill Mauldin - First Edition 1947 Hardcover - World War II Essays & Cartoons
$45.00
Bill Mauldin's Back Home which chronicles the struggles and disillusionments of the early postwar years (post WWII) and, in doing so, tells the author's own story of his journey home to a wife he barely knew and a son he had only seen in pictures. Heavily illustrated (the author actually won two Pulitzer Prizes, the first for his wartime cartoons). The drawings capture the texture and feel of a confusing time: the ubiquitous hats and cigarettes, the rising fear of another war, and new conflicts over Civil Rights, civil liberties, and free speech.
The jacket has torn but is kept secure with a plastic library cover. The inner pages are clean and the binding is good.
It's inscribed to "Joan" and dated 1947. A lovely addition to any fan's collection.
