Boy of "Greatest" description:
|
|
|
Harrowing and often sobering, Boy of "Greatest" tells the story of author David Lawrie, from his enlistment in the Army at age nineteen to the crusty veteran he has become in his eighties. Lawrie recalls his arrogant bravado as he first crossed the Atlantic, as well as the terror, rage, and hatred he felt as a World War II combat soldier. The author provides a rare glimpse into the mind of an American boy who learns to reconcile with death while continuing to fight, regaling his readers with memories that are sharp and vivid. Anyone with even a passing interest in World War II history will find Boy of "Greatest" to be a riveting account of one of the most significant events of our time.
