Sergeant York's Own Story is a book written by Sam K. Cowan, which tells the true story of Alvin C. York, a World War I hero who became an American legend. Alvin York was a simple farmer from Tennessee who was drafted into the army during World War I. Despite being a pacifist, he went on to become one of the most decorated soldiers of the war, earning the Medal of Honor for his bravery in battle.The book is an autobiographical account of York's life, from his childhood in the Tennessee mountains to his service in the army during World War I. It chronicles his experiences in the war, including his famous single-handed capture of 132 German soldiers, and his subsequent return home as a war hero.The book is written in a simple, straightforward style that reflects York's own humble personality. It offers a unique perspective on the war from a soldier who was not initially eager to fight, but who ultimately became one of the most respected and revered soldiers of his time.Overall, Sergeant York's Own Story is a compelling and inspiring tale of courage, patriotism, and sacrifice, and a tribute to one of America's greatest heroes.THIS 42 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Sergeant York and His People, by Sam K.
