Deftly weaves together the memoirs and letters of three American soldiers - Henry Beston Sheahan, Mike Hogg, and George Wythe - to capture a vivid, poignant portrayal of what it was like to be ""over there"". These firsthand recollections focus the lens of history onto one small corner of the war, and in doing so reveal new perspectives on the horrors of warfare.
