“The infantryman’s war is . . . without the slightest doubtthe dirtiest, roughest job of them all.” He went in as a military history buff, a virgin, and ateetotaler. He came out with a war bride, a taste for German beer,and intimate knowledge of one of the darkest parts of history. Hisname is Dean Joy, and this was his war. For two months in 1945, Joy endured and survived the everydaydeprivations and dangers of being a frontline infantryman. Hisamazingly detailed memoir, self-illustrated with numerous scenesJoy remembers from his time in Europe, brings back the sights,sounds, and smells of the experience as few books ever have. Hereis the story of a young man who dreamed of flying fighter aircraftand instead was chosen to be cannon fodder in France and Germany .. . who witnessed the brutality of Nazis killing Allied medics byusing the cross on their helmets as targets . . . and who narrowlyescaped being wounded or killed in several “near miss” episodes,the last of which occurred o
It is fair to say that Tom Mathews’s relations with hisfather, a veteran of World War II’s fabled 10th Mountain Division,were terrible. He came back from the war to a young son he’d barelymet and proceeded to bully and browbeat him—for his own good, hethought. In the course of puzzling out almost fifty years ofintermittent conflict, Mathews came to understand that theirproblems were not simply personal, they were generational—andwidely shared by millions of other baby boomer sons. And so, towrite this powerful book, which traces the kinetic effect of thewar on the men who fought it, their sons, and their grandsons,Mathews has uncovered nine other dramatic and telling father-sontales of veterans in some ways missing in action and how internalwar wounds shaped their lives as fathers. These include a combatinfantryman whose life was saved by the fabled Audie Murphy, and ablack member of the storied Tuskegee Airmen corps. In a movingfinal chapter, he and his father return together to Italy torevisit sc

From the Philippines to theArctic, the comet became a sensation and a symbol, a warning ofdoom or a promise of salvation. Two years later, as the Pilgrimsprepared to sail across the Atlantic on board the Mayflower, theatmosphere remained charged with fear and expectation. Men andwomen readied themselves for war, pestilence, or divineretribution. Against this background, and amid deep economicdepression, the Pilgrims conceived their enterprise of exile. Within a decade, despite crisis and catastrophe, they built athriving settlement at New Plymouth, based on beaver fur, corn, andcattle. In doing so, they laid the foundations for Massachusetts,New England, and a new nation. Using a wealth of new evidence fromlandscape, archaeology, and hundreds of overlooked or neglecteddocuments, Nick Bunker gives a vivid and strikingly originalaccount of the Mayflower project and the first decade of thePlymouth Colon
