Description
The Big Red One, Book 4: World War I, and it's a deeply moving, unflinching portrait of one man's return to the battlefield when the world goes to war again.Set in 1917, as the United States joins the First World War, this fourth installment in the acclaimed Big Red One series follows Captain Thomas Anders-Spanish-American War veteran, father, and reluctant soldier, as he's called back into service by none other than General John J. Pershing.From the solemn weight of home in Boston to the chaotic training grounds of Fort Jay, and finally across the Atlantic to France, Anders becomes part of something bigger than himself: the formation of the legendary First Infantry Division, also known as The Big Red One. Through rigorous training, philosophical doubts, and the camaraderie of a new generation of soldiers, he must once again reckon with what war takes-and what it asks us to leave behind.This novel blends lyrical prose with raw realism, capturing the intimate cost of duty and the forging of one of America's most iconic military units.
