Publisher's Synopsis
Ten years ago, Richard Rubin set out to interview every last living American veteran of World War I. In the process he uncovered a forgotten generation and their war. World War I was so cataclysmic that every town in America built a memorial to our doughboys, hoping they would never be forgotten. But today, thanks to the passing of nearly a century and an even more cataclysmic war, they are. Rubin interviewed several dozen doughboysaged 101 to 113who shared with him the story of Americas Great War and of the generation that raised the greatest generation.
