The Great War at Home and Abroad


Book Description

Holt was just 20 when he joined the American Ambulance Field Service in 1917 and sailed for France. When his six-month stint was over, he enlisted in the American Air Service, won his wings, and was assigned as an observer-bombardier-gunner with the American air squad that dropped more bombs at the front than any other. His diary and letters from March 1917 to July 1919 are accompanied by his photographs. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
