The first comprehensive study of the American male poets of World War II. This gives voice to the literary men still considered to be a part of the Silent Generation. Focusing not only on soldier poets, but also on conscientious objectors and those deemed unfit for military service, it sheds light on the struggles faced by writers from the onset of the U.S. involvement in the war in Europe to the painful physical and psychological after effects soldiers carried with them following their service years.
