A review by dennisb
The Big Red One by Samuel Fuller, Richard Schickel

5.0

Samuel Fuller's autobiographical nove, The Big Red One, is a no-nonsense, mud, blood, and guts rendering of what WWII dogfaces encountered every day. It is full of the horrors and ridiculousness of war. Amazingly enough, there are even some laugh, but I suspect that is attributed more to the author's talent in describing the crazy things that war comprises. This is a novel not to be missed!
