"And No Birds Sang," Farley Mowat's book of personal experiences in World War II, is one of the great anti-war books of all time, as well as one of the funniest.
Great book, very readable. I've read it about half a dozen times.
"Walk Well My Brother," a short story, was later turned into the wonderful, beautifully filmed movie:
"The Snow Walker." You'll cry!!!
