Democracy, Humanism and Truth

This book was such a time capsule of the American values in the 40’s. Major Joppolo personified caring and goodness. Thank you, Hersey.

So many typos? Poor Mr. Hershey

First time I’ve purchased an ebook with so many typos and errors. A Pulitzer winning book deserves better
