His Books Were The Closest Thing He

Dignity Is As Essential To Human Life As Water, Food, And Oxygen. The Stubborn Retention Of It, Even In The Face Of Extreme Physical Hardship, Can Hold A Man's Soul In His Body Long Past The Point At Which The Body Should Have Surrendered It.

Finally, I Wish To Remember The Millions Of Allied Servicemen And Prisoners Of War Who Lived The Story Of The Second World War. Many Of These Men Never Came Home; Many Others Returned Bearing Emotional And Physical Scars That Would Stay With Them For The Rest Of Their Lives. I Come Away From This Book With The Deepest Appreciation For What These Men Endured, And What They Scarified, For The Good Of Humanity. It Is To Them That This Book {unbroken} Is Dedicated.

Since Signing With Universal, I Have Been Working Closely With Gary Ross, The Director, Producer And Screenwriter. We Have Spent Many Hours On The Phone, And I've Been Sending Him Information And Items That Have Been Useful To The Writing Process.

His Books Were The Closest Thing He Had To Furniture And He Lived In Them The Way Other Men Live In Easy Chairs.

...maybe It Was Better To Break A Man's Leg Than To Break His Heart.
