Signed limited "Presentation Edition," one of an unspecified number (reportedly 1500 copies) signed by Jones on a tipped-in leaf, issued the same year as the first trade edition. Jones does for our time what Stephen Crane did for his in The Red Badge of Courage… From Here to Eternity is a major contribution to our literature, written with contempt for the forces that waste human life, and out of compassion for men who find love and honor and courage in the lower depths, where they are less apparent but sometimes more enduring" (David Dempsey). Set in the fictitious Schofield Barracks in Hawaii, it draws on many of Jones' own experiences at the time of the bombing of Pearl Harbor" (Parker, Reader's Guide to the Twentieth Century Novel, 297). "Jones' first novel shocked the American public, for it provides a brutal and realistic account of life in the United States Army. Jones' first and most highly acclaimed novel, winner of the National Book Award, is set in Pearl Harbor during World War II. Signed limited Presentation Edition of Jones’ explosive first novel, number 966 of an unspecified number (thought to be 1500), signed by him on the tipped-in “Presentation” leaf.
