First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Good original blue cloth, slight shelfwear, gift inscription to front fly page, in GD+ slightly frayed, Brodart-protected DW. The first volume in a trilogy, "The Strange Mutiny of Gunner Asch" is set in a small provincial town in Germany just before the start of World War Two, where Prussian Major 'Lumpface' Lushke rules his artillery battery with fanatical strictness. Under his command are Lieutenant Wedelman, in perpetual search for a girlfriend, the gross Sergeant Major Schulz who can terrorize anyone except his own wife, and at the bottom of the scale Gunner Vierbein, the simple willing soldier, and his more wily companion, Gunner Asch. The story reaches its climax when Gunner Asch revolts against the monstrous system and, by a very special sort of mutiny, reduces the barracks to chaos with riotous consequences. The book that inspired the hit 1960's tv series, Hogan's Heroes.
