An historical novel based on the life of a true western hero, this powerful story traces the path of Donald Rose from his growing up on a ranch in Colorado through his maturing years on the California Central Coast to his service with the AEF in the trenches of the War to End All Wars. This book, the fifth from the excellent pen of Gerard Rose, is poignant, and powerful in its importance in telling the story of a noble and courageous man of the American West.
