Before he was a professional artist and cartoonist, Robert Larsen was serving his country. While studying art at Yale, he was called into action as a member of the National Guard during the Korean War and would ultimately lead a mortar platoon at the 38th parallel. While stationed there, he penned nearly one hundred and fifty letters to his young wife Liz back home in the United States.
"With Love, From the 38th Parallel", is a collection of Bob's wartime correspondence that tells not only a love story but also a unique perspective on life during the Korean War. Featuring Bob's accompanying drawings and dozens of his photographs, the book offers valuable insight on army life and the experience of combat, specifically what it was like living in a firing bunker on the front lines. Some of the original photos and drawings from the book are featured on this website in accompanying pages.
