En savoir plus sur le livre
There's a balance between "can't put this book down" as too interesting and "can't pick this book up" as too heavy. For that reason, these stories are limited to 79 testimonials about those brave fathers - and mothers - who served in World War II. The book includes first-hand accounts, rare and previously unpublished photographs, and preened excerpts from researched recordings. Nearly eight decades after this world calamity, a compendium of heroic war stories was developed from interaction between their children. The Greatest Generation rarely spoke about their exploits to defend liberty and dispose of tyrants. To delve into the archives to find the morsels of reality that pervaded this six-year conflict has become a "must read" that enhances those historical accounts. Wars are misery defined. Yet these poignant insights, journal notes, telegrams, letters, and the words of those who comported those actions bring that vivid reality to the fore.
