Originally published in 1949, \u003ci\u003eTo Hell and Back\u003c\/i\u003e was a smash bestseller for fourteen weeks and later became a major motion picture starring Audie Murphy as himself. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMany decades later, this classic wartime memoir is just as gripping as it was then. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDesperate to see action but rejected by both the marines and paratroopers because he was too short, Murphy eventually found a home with the infantry. He fought through campaigns in Sicily, Italy, France, and Germany. Although still under twenty-one years old on V-E Day, he was credited with having killed, captured, or wounded 240 Germans. He emerged from the war as America's most decorated soldier, having received twenty-one medals, including our highest military decoration, the Congressional Medal of Honor. \u003ci\u003eTo Hell and Back\u003c\/i\u003e is a powerfully real portrayal of American GI's at war.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudie Murphy\u003c\/b\u003e was the most decorated American soldier during World War II.
