QUESTION

History assignment for prof James only

Eugene Sledge's book is one of the most devastating accounts of any war at any point in human history.  It is unflinchingly honest and incredibly violent. 

Before the war, he lived in Mobile, Alabama, the deeply religious son of a local dentist.  After the war, he became a biology professor.  He said that the close study of nature helped him grapple with the memories that plagued him, and the nightmares he suffered nearly nightly for the remainder of his life.

-Make sure you provide a thorough answer the question--a sentence is NOT a thorough answer.  1.5-2 pages, single spaced, is usual for this assignment. 

-Cite page numbers in parentheses and use direct quotes to support your answer.

-The best responses show that you actually read and engaged with the book rather than surfed the internet.

-Your grammar, sentence structure, and paragraph structure are part of your grade.-I prefer you use 12 point font, 1" margins.
