Erich Maria Remarque: The Last Romantic Hilton Tims
Book DescriptionFor more than seventy years Erich Maria Remarque's startlingly realistic and intensely moving antiwar novel All Quiet on the Western Front has remained a worldwide best-seller. A political and literary sensation when it was first published, Remarque's masterpiece was banned and burned in the 1930s by the Nazis.
