You can almost smell the gunpowder, mustard gas, and mud. This is a captivating novel that takes the reader on a roller coaster of emotions, from despair and desperation to love and hope. A great read!

—KR Machado, former A-10 pilot, U.S. Air Force


More interesting than your high school history class (and probably more informative), this look into the Great War aptly shows the conflict from both sides of the trenches and the cost for soldiers and civilians.
