Author: Robert Leckie
Title: These Are My Heroes: A Modern Study of the Saints
Description: New York, Random House, 1964. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. 177p. A near-fine hardcover book in a like dustjacket. This is a new unread book in dustjacket. The book is marred only by a musty smell from having been stored in a basement for many years. The jacket has just a few traces of wear along its edges. This book actually belonged to the author and was one of several copies he kept stored in the basment of his New Jersey home. There is no evidence of Robert Leckie's ownership (such as a signature, bookplate, etc.) but this was purchased directly from his estate. One of the best studies of the saints and a modern classic of Catholic writing. Leckie (1920-2001) is best known for his military history books including his classic memoir HELMET FOR MY PILLOW. His character is featured prominently in the HBO series THE PACIFIC. Leckie was also a devout Catholic and wrote several books on Catholic history. THESE ARE MY HEROES was issued in two formats: one with a dustjacket, the other without a dustjacket but with a slipcase. Both the jacket and slipcase are uncommon today. As new .
