The literature of World War II is replete with accounts of European campaigns. But the public has remained, until now, comparatively ignorant of the most exotic and savage fighting of the entire war. Riflemen in the Pacific could not understand the uproar on the home front which followed publication of a picture of a handful of American casualties lying facedown on a beach. The men fighting the Japanese had not only seen dismembered bodies floating in the waters off Tarawa; on Iwo Jima and Okinawa they piled dead Marines in stacks like cordwood, and elsewhere in the Pacific fighting men wore gas masks to disguise the stench of rotting flesh. Men slept on corpses. They used them to build barricades. Neither side took prisoners; quarter was neither asked nor given. Haunted by nightmares of the war and by an overpowering sense of irrevocable loss, William Manchester returns to the hallowed islands where thousands of his generation gave their lives. Manchester again walks the beaches where Americans attacked the Japanese, and again climbs the trails he had known as a scared young sergeant leading his section of college students who had enlisted after Pearl Harbor into combat. Once more he digs a foxhole and spends the night alone on an eerie jungle ridge waiting for his dreadful dreams to pounce. Throughout his quest, Manchester is frequently astonished at how the trappings of junk~civilization have defiled what he knows to be sacred grounds, mocking the valor of the past. He laments the lack of memorials to the dead men who in battle became closer to him than " any friends had been or ever would be." This is also their story, they who called themselves the "Raggedy Ass Marines": Barney, Rip, Knocko, Horse, Mickey, Swifty Crabbe, Pisser McAdam, Killer Kane. They were his men, his fellow Marines. Few escaped alive and unmaimed. Those who did have lived out their lives afflicted with survivor's guilt. In a stirring moment informed by the accumulated emotional drama of thirty~five years, Manchester unexpectedly finds himself at his final destination on Okinawa's Sugar Loaf Hill, where in nine days 7,547 Marines fell, near the spot where, on a distant June mormng in 1945, he also had been gravely wounded and left for dead. Standing where he nearly lost his life, Manchester arrives at a profound understanding of the meaning of the war and why he fought, and of an America so changed from his youthful expectations. An intense impassioned, and highly personal work, Goodbye, Darkness is singularly different from anything William Manchester has ever written during his distinguished career as a biographer, novelist, and historian.
