New WW I Book
Friends
A friend, Dr. Wayne Pettyjohn, sent me a copy of a novel he has worked on for several years. The title is Buck’s Story, a Marine in the Great War. Illustrated, maps, 241 pages, soft covers.
I have previously read it in manuscript and I can tell you if you read novels you will like this one. It is the story, told in a serious mode, about a young farm lad that follow’s his desire to make something of himself. There are numerous other invidivuals, all of whom are well described, that come into the story, making it more than just one man’s experiences.
The illustrations are truly superb, well-drawn and the maps are better than you will find in many non-fiction works. Wayne has made the story of the Marines in the war, his satisfying work, possibly better than any prescription he has ever written.
(that’s a joke, son)
If interested, and frankly I believe you would be, you can contact Wayne at wpettyj@aol.com for price and availability. He sez $20.00 postpaid but it’s better to verify that first.
