THE DESERT PEACH is the long-running drawn-book series that has taken on everything in the twentieth century, and done to World War Two what it deserves. Biting humor, fearless views, beautifully researched and illustrated in lively, black-and-white line drawings. It has helped men come out of the closet, and women come out as writers. Indespensible for any adult library -- and something that the kids look forward to.
