The USC Press has launched the Joseph M. Bruccoli Great War Series, the republication in paperback of books dealing with World War I from the extensive holdings of the Joseph M. Bruccoli Great War Collection in the Special Collections of USC's Thomas Cooper Library.
The series is funded by Matthew J. Bruccoli, distinguished professor of English, who named the collection and series for his late father, a decorated World War I veteran. Each of the books has a new introduction and afterward.
"This partnership makes elements of the rare research holdings of our library available once more to the general reading public and, in so doing, serves the missions of both the library and USC Press," said press marketing manager Jonathan Haupt.
The three novels, published Nov. 20, are: Plumes ($19.95) by the late American author, playwright, and screenwriter Laurence Stallings; Zero Hour ($19.95) by the late German author, philosophy professor, and West German Ministry of Cultural Affairs official Georg Grabenhorst; and The Somme ($14.95) by British author A.D. Gristwood.
The three books are available in bookstores or from the USC Press by calling 800 768-2500 or going online at www.sc.edu/uscpress.
