Contents Description:

The saga of China-Burma-India - World War II's forgotten theater - is as heroic as it is seldom told. Richard Beard, an Army psychologist assigned to the 142nd General Hospital in Calcutta, dealt daily with emotional trauma. In daily letters to Reva, he poured out not only his own longing and passions but also the unfolding drama of war in painfully exquistie detail tempered with tenderness and humor. - from the inside flap
