forget it.”—New York Times
“May well be accorded equal respect with War and Peace as the
masterpiece reporting war’s reality.”—David Douglas Duncan,
photojournalist and author of This is War! and War Without
Heroes
“Sajer is blunt in explaining his reason for sharing his
experiences: ‘to reanimate, with all the intensity I can summon,
those distant cries from the slaughterhouse.’ He succeeds in doing
just that. . . . This book will remain relevant because it explores
the psychology of the soldier at war.”—Military Review
“[[This] may be the book about World War II which has been so long
awaited.”—Christian Science Monitor

on the Western Front.”—John Barkham
“Transcends language and nationality to address the human
race.”—Chicago Sun-Times
“Few memoirs can compare with this work in range of feeling, depths
of self-analysis, or vivid recounting of combat. This exception
book is highly recommended.”—Library Journal
“Transcends language and nationality to address the human
race.”—Chicago Sun-Times
“[Forgotten Soldier] must be read. . . . An enduring indictment of
the evil of war and what it does to man.”—Louisville
