The Long March by William Styron

The Long March by William Styron

In the blaze of a Carolina summer, among the poison ivy and loblolly pines, eight Marines are killed almost casually by misfired mortar shells. Deciding that his battalion has been 'doping off', Colonel Templeton calls for a 36-mile forced march to inculcate discipline. The Long March is a searing account of this ferocious ordeal - and of the two officers who resist.

William Styron is the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Long March, Lie Down in Darkness, Set This House on Fire, The Confessions of Nat Turner and Sophie's Choice.
He has also published Darkness Visible , the remarkable story of his descent into depression, a collection, This Quiet Dust and Other Writings, and A Tidewater Morning. He lives in Roxbury, Connecticut, and Martha's Vineyard.
