Martin Faxon Russ (February 14, 1931, in Newark, NJ – December 6, 2010 in Oakville, CA) was an American military author, Marine, and associate professor at Carnegie-Mellon University. 〔http://scottholleran.com/books/writer-and-marine-martin-russ-1931-2010〕 His first book, ''The Last Parallel,'' a New York Times bestseller and a Book of the Month Club selection, was based (with changed names) on his service in the First Battalion of the First Regiment of the First Marine Division during the Korean War. 〔Able Company, First Battalion, First Regiment, First Marine Division, ''The Last Parallel,'' p. 54.〕 J.D. Salinger called it “a very legitimate, sinewy, authentic war book”; 〔Fromm International edition, 1999, rear cover〕 it was later optioned, but not produced, by director Stanley Kubrick. Most of his later work was based on interviews with combat veterans.〔(New York Times obituary ) 〕 ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Martin Russ」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
