A Grip on the Mane of Life: An Authorized Biography of Earl V. Shaffer - by David Donaldson and Maurice J. Forrester
After serving four and a half years in the army during WWII-mostly in the battle-torn islands of the South Pacific-and along the way losing his best friend at Iwo Jima, Earl Shaffer came home to Pennsylvania with a large dose of military depression.
