Edited with care and devotion by Patricia M. and Arthur J. Jackson, this collection is both a deeply personal family document and a significant contribution to the literature of wartime testimony. The editors preserve Jackson's authentic voice throughout, allowing his words to stand as a testament to duty and sacrifice without embellishment.
