About the Book

Letters of correspondence detailing what Arthur Darst Bryan did to protect himself, his horse, his teammates, and it wasn't until November 1918 when censorship was stopped that his family learned where he had been, what he had done in battle, i.e., his hospitalization, etc. He was still there for the occupation and traveled when he could. He writes about the French POWs when they were liberated. He writes about getting into battles with the Germans, and how they were surrendering and/or escaping to the west.

About the Author

BJ began writing short stories at a young age but it wasn't until employment was obtained in which an orthopedic surgeon needed someone to assit him in his bone research. BJ grabbed at the opportunity years ago and research became an important factor in life. Researching family genealogy for about 25 years only strengthened the desire to continue in research at different levels. Having received copies of letters from relatives of a World War I veteran, it was only natural that said letters would be compiled into this book.
