About The Author	Irwin Shaw was born in new York in 1913 and began his literary career writing short stories, and plays for the stage and radio. During World War II he served in North Africa, the Middle East and all over Europe, and it was after the war that he achieved widespread acclaim with his first novel, THE YOUNG LIONS. Irwin Shaw wrote more than a dozen novels, all of which became worldwide bestsellers. A number of his books have also found success as feature films and TV serials, and they have been translated in to twenty languages. Irwin Shaw died in 1984.
	It is almost as if De Maggio had cast aside his center fielder's glove one afternoon, turned up that night at Madison Square Garden, and knocked out Joe Louis in the first round. Irwin Shaw's novel is that impressive.
Other text	Three men linked by war: only one will survive – Shaw's superb novel of World War II was the biggest selling title of all 1948 and is a Hodder Great Read
