Prizes (the 1952 National Book Award) and plenty of cash (mainly from Hollywood) gave Jones a mobility he might have used to grow beyond his army themes. Unhappily his latest book. The Thin Red Line, like those preceding it, has not reached out to new subjects or ideas. Instead, it turns back again to the army-still, apparently, the only...
