Extra copy purchased yesterday from the St John of God op-shop, Eastfield Road, for ANZAC day release.
From back cover:
"'All Quiet on the Western Front' has long been recognised as the finest novel to emerge on either side from the First World War.
Although written from the German point of view, Remarque's greatest novel is a truly universal story of men at war. It tells of the courage and the comradeship of a generation marked for death - of the tenderness as well as the sickening brutality unleashed in battle. It tells of the many who died and the few who survived - and of the strange quality of that survival.
For as long as war is a subject for fiction 'All Quiet on the Western Front' will live."
Listed as #667 on *1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die* and available for friends of the 1001-library.
FYI: St John of God.

As an ex-school book, this has already been covered to protect it on its journey, and now has a sticker on the spine. There are notations in some margins, and passages underlined.
