58-- Ernie's America The Best of Ernie Pyle's 1930s Travel Dispatches, Edited by David Nichols (read 23 Mar 2023) has a lot of Ernie Pyle's writings from 1935 to 1941. I read it because I well remembered Pyle's writing about the Albert McGinn'family during that time. But the book does not include that writing. But I found I enjoyed some of what Pyke wrote, though I thought that he often was loose about facts

Interesting human interest war stories, mostly in Europe. Sad about his death no Okinawa. He had the human touch for sure.
