Echoes from World War II
The Grannie Annie's Themed Collection

The forty-six compelling family stories in this book are remembered from battlefields, prison camps, and homes in twenty countries around the world. As a collection, Echoes tells the story of the war itself — from Hitler's rise to power to a Japanese-American twenty-five years after the war's end.
