<p>The author uses "camera eye" and "newsreel" sections to create a fragmented yet naturalistic atmosphere. The testimony of the numerous characters, both fictional and historical, gradually builds up a composite picture of American society in the first quarter of the 20th century.</p>

Based on the author's first-hand experience as an ambulance driver during World War I, this first novel is noteworthy for its vivid and colorful portrait of France at that time and for its passionate indictment of war. The author's disillusionment with war, for a time, turned him toward socialism and against capitalism. Finally, after being labeled "pro-German" and "pacifist" Dos Passos concluded that the quasi-religion of Marxism was far more brutal than "poor old Capitalism ever dreamed of" Reprinted from the unexpurgated original edition published by Cornell University Press in 1969.
