Well, 'For Whom the Bell Tolls' by Ernest Hemingway is a remarkable classic war story. It's set during the Spanish Civil War and shows the complex relationships between the characters involved in the conflict. Then there's 'A Farewell to Arms' also by Hemingway, which combines a love story with the backdrop of World War I. 'Slaughterhouse - Five' by Kurt Vonnegut is another important work. It's about World War II and has a unique narrative style that jumps through time and space, showing the absurdity of war.
I think 'All Quiet on the Western Front' is highly influential. It made people around the world truly understand the terrors of war at a personal level for the soldiers. It changed the way people thought about war, not as a glorious adventure but as a harrowing and dehumanizing experience. 'War and Peace' is also extremely influential. It's not just about the war but how war affects society, politics, and the lives of ordinary people on a grand scale.
One classic is 'All Quiet on the Western Front' by Erich Maria Remarque. It vividly depicts the horrors of World War I from the perspective of a German soldier. Another is 'The Red Badge of Courage' by Stephen Crane, which explores the psychological journey of a young soldier in the American Civil War. 'War and Peace' by Leo Tolstoy is also a great one, presenting a panorama of Russian society during the Napoleonic Wars.
Definitely. 'A Farewell to Arms' is another classic. It's about an American ambulance driver in World War I and his relationship with a British nurse. The novel gives a great sense of the disillusionment that many people felt during and after the war. It's a beautifully written and tragic story.

There are many powerful stories in Vietnam War books. Some focus on the experiences of soldiers on the front lines, like the harrowing tales of combat, facing the enemy in the thick jungles. Others might tell of the civilians caught in the middle, their lives disrupted by the war.
One classic war story is about the Battle of Thermopylae. A small force of Spartans led by King Leonidas held off a much larger Persian army. Their sacrifice became a symbol of heroism and resistance. Another is the story of Joan of Arc in the Hundred Years' War. She led the French army to several victories despite being a young peasant girl. It shows the power of belief and leadership.
Another is 'The Red Badge of Courage'. It delves into the psychological horror of war. The protagonist's journey from being a naive recruit to facing the reality of battle, with all its chaos and bloodshed, is a harrowing tale. He experiences fear, self - doubt, and the struggle to prove his courage in the midst of war.
