I was reminded often here of Audie Murphy's bestselling WWII memoir, TO HELL AND BACK, except I LIKED Murphy. Yes, Barkley was awarded the Medal of Honor and numerous other decorations for his bravery, risks taken and injuries suffered, but, all things considered, and despite all the professional rewrites and editing, SCARLET FIELDS is just not a very engaging read. Recommended, but probably only for serious war lit buffs or historians.
