From Mail to Mountain is a detailed portrayal of the daily life of an Army private (author's father) who served in World War II. The author used documented activities researched from company level daily reports along with stories his father told, to envision and develop dialogue between soldiers of the 86th Mountain Infantry Regiment, 10th Mountain Division as they engaged the German army in the North Apennines and Po River campaigns in Italy. From Mail to Mountain is interesting, riveting, and authentic. You won't want to put it down until you've finished reading it!
Highly acclaimed by military leaders and others!
