#1 Bestseller in Biographies of the Army on Amazon * Book Excellence Awards Winner in Biography * Eric Hoffer Award Category Finalist * IAN Book of the Year Awards Finalist * 5-Star Review from Readers' Favorite Awards We almost didn't know. For 57 years, Alfred Endres told his family he had been a barber, chauffeur, and translator in World War II. But following the death of his wife, Alfred quietly started sharing a glimpse into his actual wartime experiences. His daughter first began capturing those fractions of stories on napkins during her weekly nursing home visits, which grew into a nearly two-decade deep dive into his true role in the war-a reluctant front-line machine gunner in Europe from 1944 to 1945. Intensely researched and thoroughly human, Alfred compiles a lifetime panorama of one infantryman who never wanted a part in the war but accepted it. He returned home, discernibly the gentle Wisconsin farmer he was when he left, to a family unknowing what he had done and what he had survived.
