Review title: Among the Best American Civil War Novels of All Time
Product review: I re-read Jim Mundy this past week - for the sixth or seventh time. As I read this time, I kept wondering why no one has ever made a movie or mini-series based on the story. The story has everything - action, intrigue, back-stabbing, romance, and the other things that make a great novel. Most of all it goes deeply into the bonding that happens between among combat soldiers who, while perhaps not liking each other personally, grow close as they learn to depend upon each other in literal life-and-death situations. Another great aspect of the story is the sense of personal honor and responsibility exhibited by most of the characters. My copy is an original 1977 hardbound which I acquired in the mid-1980s. The paper is brittle and the glue is cracking and falling out. I'm glad the book is still in print so I can get a new copy when I finally wear out my old one.
