Lt. Gen. Harold Moore and Joseph Galloway return to Vietnam’s Ia Drang Valley more than four decades after the battle they recalled in their #1 New York Times bestseller We Were Soldiers Once . . . and Young. Renewing their relationships with ten American veterans of the fabled conflict—and with former adversaries—the authors explore how the war changed them all, as well as their two countries.

We Are Soldiers Still is an emotional journey back to hallowed ground, putting a human face on warfare as the authors reflect on war’s devastating cost.

In the summer of 1949, E.B. White sat in a New York City hotel room and, sweltering in the summer heat, wrote a remarkable, pristine essay, Here Is New York. Perceptive, funny, and nostalgic, the author’s stroll around Manhattan — with the reader arm-in-arm — remains the quintessential love letter to the city, written by one of America’s foremost literary figures. Like most of White’s prose (his essays, his “Talk of the Town” columns, The Elements of Style), this book is of modest length. Yet, like Charlotte’s Web, it speaks more eloquently about what lasts and what really matters than other, more expansive pieces. The New York Times has chosen Here Is New York as one of the ten best books ever written about the grand metropolis. The New Yorker calls it “the wittiest essay, and one of the most perceptive, ever done on the city.” This edition of Here Is New York marks the 100th anniversary of E.B. White’s birth, and appears with a new introduction by Roger Angell.Amazon.com Review
“On any person who desires such queer prizes, New York will bestow the gift of loneliness and the gift of privacy.” So begins E.B. White’s classic meditation on that noisiest, most public of American cities. Written during the summer of 1948, well after the author and editor had taken up permanent residence in Maine, Here Is New York is a fond glance back at the city of his youth, when White was one of the “young worshipful beginners” who give New York its passionate character. It’s also a tribute to the sheer implausibility of the place–the tangled infrastructure, the teeming humanity, the dearth of air and light. Much has changed since White wrote this essay, yet in a city “both changeless and changing” there are things here that will doubtless ring equally true 100 years from now. To wit, “New Yorkers temperamentally do not crave comfort and convenience–if they did they would live elsewhere.”

Anyone who’s ever cherished his essays–or even Charlotte’s Web–knows that White is the most elegant of all possible stylists. There’s not a sentence here that does not make itself felt right down to the reader’s very bones. What would the author make of Giuliani’s New York? Or of Times Square, Disney-style? It’s hard to say for sure. But not even Planet Hollywood could ruin White’s abiding sense of wonder: “The city is like poetry: it compresses all life … into a small island and adds music and the accompaniment of internal engines.” This lovely new edition marks the 100th anniversary of E.B. White’s birth–cause for celebration indeed. –Mary Park
