—Rick Beyer, New York Times bestselling author of The Ghost Army of World War II

“Few things bring history to life like the words of those who lived through it. Martin King offers us a glimpse into those experiences, documenting a young nation in the most formative periods of its history. Insightful, moving, and important, this book is a valuable tool for anyone wanting to better understand America’s role in the most brutal of conflicts.”
—Dan Snow, BBC TV Presenter and historian, History Hit TV
