  • Hump Drivers

    Arthur La Vove

    Hardcover (Austin Macauley Publishing, June 30, 2016)
    Countless men served in World War II. In combat, on the seas, in administrative offices, and in the skies. Hump Drivers is a vivid and engrossing account in words and images of one man's experience as a "Hump Driver," a pilot who transported people and goods across the terrain between Assam, India, and China. With skillful, highly-detailed drawings and honest, relatable and often witty descriptions, the tales of the war are shared in such a way that even a lay person will be left with a deep appreciation and respect for those who served in the armed forces. Arthur La Vove presents an unforgettable collection of portraits which depict how profoundly the war could change a man. With the poor-quality food, insanitary and uncomfortable facilities, harsh and dangerous weather, malfunctioning communications and equipment, and governmental political games of expectations, it is only too easy to see and feel for the men who endured the hardships in such a foreign place as the Hump.
