Ep 748 - MASH: A Novel about Three Army Doctors, by Richard Hooker and W.C. Heinz

MASH is the book that inspired the movie that inspired the show M*A*S*H, which is set in an active war zone but doesn't have a ton to say about war. If you wanted to read about the exploits of a bunch of meatball surgeon wiseacres, though, it is not completely without its charms.
