More about the book

Exploring the intersection of faith and warfare, this book delves into the experiences of American soldiers, nurses, and aid workers during the Great War. Through personal letters, diaries, and memoirs, it reveals how Christianity influenced their motivations to fight and cope with the chaos of war. Many viewed the conflict as a religious test, believing it could lead to redemption for themselves and their nation. Despite the challenges posed by the war, their faith remained a cornerstone of their identity and perspective on America's role in the conflict.
