"“I was in one of the last landing barges to hit the beach of Gavutu Island. We were halfway in when the Japanese machine guns got their range. Bullets slapped the water and whined as they ricocheted off the barge. Some of us ducked; some of us fell to the floor; and all of us prayed.” Here, in heart-stopping human detail, are twenty-one personal accounts told by the men themselves. They are the stories of men who lived in hell and live ..."

"We were beef and pork eaters, and we didn't like Australian meat. I found that I
was eating less than usual. My throat was beginning to hurt. For two or three days
at a time, it hurt every time I swallowed. Doc Loaiza fixed up a gargle, but it didn't
help much. The new diet wasn't anything to write home about, bad throat or no
bad throat. The potatoes tasted like balls of cotton. The meat was Spam, which is
fine if you like it. Mos ..."

She knew, of course, that Albert was telling people in Bridgewater that he was the
Boston Strangler. Mrs. Khouri's face showed no change. “I know my boy,” she
said. She sat, solid and impregnable. “He's supposed to have confessed but he's
