Karl Malantes, Marine Lieutenant and Rhodes Scholar, started writing Matterhorn in 1975. Some 30 years later, it is done - and critics say it's been well worth the wait.

It's not a book so much as a deployment, and you will not return unaltered…Matterhorn is a raw, brilliant account of war that may well serve as a final exorcism for one of the most painful passages in American history."
