| War Record: Dreams of a Stolen World tells the story of the upbringing of an ordinary American in the years before World War II. This first installment of the four part series carefully shows how a vibrant, integrated urban society becomes a part of the evolution to adulthood of all its citizens. From the reader's bird's eye view, though, it is immediately evident that this one American will have to summon up unthought of strength if he is to simply survive the ordeal he's forced through by a global conflict. Read War Record to watch these two opposing forces collide in what amounts to a fight for one man's soul. |
