Description
"As the Most Famous Journalist of the early twentieth century, Ring Lardner's wry skills as an observer and satirical bent as a writer weren't just confined to the sporting arenas of his day. In 1918 he packed his kit bag and his biting wit and headed off to France on assignment for Colliers, to cast a Lardneresque eye on the Great War. At the same time, he created a new wartime series of letters from the pen of his most famous fictional character -- Jack Keefe -- who had traded in his baseball flannels for military drab. Lardner on War puts together, for the first time, the masterpieces from this era, to introduce the wit, wisdom, and whimsy of Ring Lardner to a new generation of readers. Book jacket."--Jacket.
