IN THIS PREQUEL TO HIS 1970’S COMING-OF-AGE NOVEL
set in Yazoo City, Mississippi, Dale Beasley tells the story of the devilish and charming Dallas Crabtree who saw his well-laid plans waylaid, ambushed for a greater call. One phone call took the college senior away from his carefree life of fraternity parties and sorority formals to being surrounded by the German army in the Siege of Bastogne. That one call caused Crabtree to spend a year of his life in the war and the rest of his life coming home.
“We Will Not Be Home By Christmas” is a collection of letters, postcards, and stories from Soldiers and Marines during Christmas in WWI, WWII, and the Korean War. This is a large format coffee table book.
All profits from this book go to support National Organization, Wreaths Across America.
