Description: 1st Edition - Doubleday - 1951-1952 17th PrintingPlease see pictures for more detail------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Herman Wouk (/ˈwoʊk/; born May 27, 1915) is an American author, whose best-selling 1951 novel The Caine Mutiny won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. His other works include the highly acclaimed The Winds of War and War and Remembrance, historical novels about World War II, and non-fiction such as This Is My God, a popular explanation of Judaism from a Modern Orthodox perspective, written for Jewish and non-Jewish audiences. His books have been translated into 27 languages.[1] The Washington Post called Wouk, who cherishes his privacy, “the reclusive dean of American historical novelists.”[1] Historians, novelists, publishers, and critics who gathered at the Library of Congress in 1995 to mark Wouk's 80th birthday likened him to "an American Tolstoy."[2] Wouk's latest book, which he says will be his last,[3] is an autobiographical memoir entitled Sailor and Fiddler: Reflections of a 100-Year-Old Author, and was released in January 2016 to mark his 100th birthday.
