In this highly anticipated follow-up to The Rifle, Andrew Biggio brings to light more untold stories from the quickly vanishing ranks of the veterans of World War II.
Biggio’s discovery of the astonishing effect his 1945 M1 Garand rifle had on the old warriors who held it sparked a unique personal mission to put it in the hands of as many veterans as possible and document the wartime memories it evoked.
In this second volume, he recounts more unforgettable stories from the last of the soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines who fought the most dreadful war in history. They were the Greatest Generation, but they were also ordinary men, sharing in all of humanity’s weaknesses and flaws while trying to respond to the call of duty. That rifle brought out some dark and painful secrets.
These stories form a unique record of the heights and depths which the human spirit reaches in war.
