For the first time, Brendan M. Greenley Jr. has collected virtually all of Tom Lea’s firsthand accounts of his assignments for Life, along with his powerful sketches and unforgettable paintings. Brendan has placed them in context, along with photographs and research focusing on the people, places, and wartime events encountered by Tom Lea. This book will be published by Texas A&M University Press later this year.
