Mar 2015 · Dover Publications · 19.95 USD
“A Sailor's Story”

Sam Glanzman's deeply personal *A Sailor's Story* wears its heart on its cover: a destroyer cutting through churning Pacific swells, its hull number 479 plainly visible, set against a hand-annotated wartime map stretching from Pearl Harbor to Australia — with a real photograph of a young sailor in dress whites pinned over it like a cherished memory. Glanzman both wrote and drew every page, bringing the same veteran's eye to the cover art that renders the warship with striking authenticity. With a foreword by Max Brooks, an introduction by Larry Hama, and an afterword by Chuck Dixon, this 2015 Dover edition arrives with exactly the kind of literary respect a story this genuine deserves.
