Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. WORLD WAR II PACIFIC THEATER BEACH RED BY PETER BOWMAN 1945 1ST. I recently listed one of the classics of the books from World War II, Brave Men, by Ernie Pyle about the European theater and the Allied landing in Sicily. Here is another book about that war, this one about the Pacific Theater. I am pleased to be able to offer: Beach Red, by Peter Bowman. This is the story of an amphibious invasion of a beach front in a Pacific Island that goes unnamed (but thought to be modeled on what happened at Leyte in the Philippines). It is the story of a single hour in the life of a soldier, told in his own thoughts, on the morning of the invasion. It is a dramatic read, but I won t spoil the outcome for you by telling you how it ends. This small hard cover book (5 ¾ x 8 ¼ inches, 122 pages) was published by Random House of New York, dated 1945 and a First Edition. The book is bound in beige cloth with red and gilt title panels on cover and spine. Each right-hand page has a red splotch with a number in it, representing the minutes of the first hour of the invasion. This book was made into a film (of the same name), directed and starred in by Cornel Wilde and with Rip Torn, in 1967. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The hard covers are a bit dust-dulled and there are some small blemishes on the front cover. The spine is a bit worn and the red titles are harder to read that the gilt. Inside, the book is unmarked and the pages are generally clean. The red minutes marks (please see the photos) have left their shadow, unintentionally, on the page opposite, something I imagine is common with this book. Both hinges are fully intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…
