The Tenth Trail Mark: A WWII Novel of Courage, Sacrifice, and the 10th Mountain Division
Format: Paperback
A WWII STORY OF COURAGE AND LOVE
For fans of Band of Brothers, The Nightingale, and Beneath a Scarlet Sky
In the dead of night, Adirondack woodsman Johnnie Grey leads the legendary 10th Mountain Division up an ice cliff the Germans call unconquerable--a linchpin of the brutal Gothic Line. One slip means oblivion. One victory could rip the German front wide open and help liberate Italy.
Johnnie's survival instincts--honed hunting through blizzards and the Great Depression to feed his family--are his greatest weapon. But his heart belongs to Ellie, the West Virginia farm girl who slips a silver St. Andrew's Cross around his neck: a trail mark of love meant to guide him home.
Now, under a relentless "ring of fire" artillery barrage, Johnnie must gamble everything on a wild, audacious plan.
Inspired by true events, The Tenth Trail Mark is a sweeping novel of courage, sacrifice, and a love strong enough to light even the darkest ascent.
