One of the most gifted and influential American journalists of the 20th century, A.J. Liebling spent five years reporting the stories of World War II for The New Yorker.
Hamill and the Library of America have gathered Liebling’s brilliant war writing in a single volume, Liebling: World War II Writings. "The Road Back to Paris" narrates his shock at the fall of France and the isolationist indifference in the United States. "Mollie and Other War Pieces" includes Liebling’s eyewitness account of Omaha Beach on D-Day. In "Normandy Revisited" Liebling writes about his return to France in 1955 and recalls the joyous liberation of his beloved Paris while exploring with bittersweet perception how wartime experience is transformed into memory. Some of Liebling's uncollected New Yorker articles explore diverse topics such as battle fatigue, Ernie Pyle, Omar Bradley, surveys of the French underground press and military history.
