  THE MIDDLE PARTS OF FORTUNE, published anonymously in 1929 under the title HER PRIVATES WE, was from the start an underground classic, considered the ultimate novel of trench warfare. This is a searing evocation of the horror, brutality, futility, nobility, and courage which are the staples in man's never-ending battle against the inevitability of death.
