Tristram Shandy condensed for wartime reading, published in 1942 by Editions for the Armed Services, Inc. as no. K-31 in a whole series of pre-paperback literature which during the WWII was shipped to the US-troops overseas, for their amusement and education. There is no black page, no marbled page and nor plot-lines either in this edition. But the flourish line from corporal Trim's stick, and all the "[…] prodigious armies we had in Flanders", are indeed present.
