Description
This story – part memoir, part historical fiction – spans a period of one hundred years, from 1914 to 2014, with the main emphasis being on the years of the two World Wars. It concentrates on the lives of real people –the author's parents, the author, a young pilot from New Jersey in WW1, and others – as well as some fictional characters, who all lived through one or both of the wars and were profoundly affected personally by them. Arise the Dead I focuses on World War I where the author's dad took part in the Battle of Loos (September 1915) and where he was wounded.

What a page-turner. Interwoven characters from the 1st world war up to modern times. A beautifully written bit of history that can reduce one to tears on more than one occasion. The author, on a battlefield tour, encapsulates the naivety and total horror of a soldier in the trenches who lost so many friends and survived. How life had to 'go on' and why so many did not speak of the atrocities witnessed.
