To Hell and Back is Audie Murphy's 1949 World War II memoir, detailing the events that led him to receive the Medal of Honor and also to become the most decorated infantryman of the war.
Although only Murphy's name appears on the book cover, it was a collaboration with writer David "Spec" McClure.
While in France, Murphy received permission to visit the battle sites.
The two men retraced 1,500 miles of battlefield as Murphy related details of the events to McClure.
The book has had multiple printings and been translated into Dutch,[4] Italian,[5] French,[6] and Slovene.
