| Publisher Description: Among the eighteen celebrities I met along my life's journey were U. S. presidents, secretaries of state, hall of fame athletes, award winning writers, a popular entertainer, and a great evangelist, but the focus in this book is on a man who was an obscure biology professor at a small state university until he wrote a book detailing his combat experiences in World War II. That book, WITH THE OLD BREED AT PELELIU AND OKINAWA, has been hailed as one of the ten greatest war books ever written, and it catapulted Professor Eugene B. "Sledgehammer" Sledge into national and international fame. On these pages I recount my personal experiences with him and the other celebrities with whom I had the opportunity to interact. |
