'Til the Boys Come Home

Another series! I suppose I talk a lot and if I were going to write a book, I would probably say all I could and spread the story out too.

This is a series of war novels by Jerry Borrowman, including (so far):

'Til the Boys Come Home: A World War I Novel

I'll Be Seeing You: A World War II Novel

As Time Goes By: A World War II Novel - Battle of Britain

I think Dave got the first one for Christmas last year, and then the second for Father's Day, and his Dad brought the third one on our trip this summer, so I have read all three. I enjoyed each of them. I will admit the banter in some of the romantic conversations is way too "chick flicky", but their are plenty of war scenes to balance it out. The author's knowledge of machinery is astounding, and no matter the war vessel, from submarines to motorcycles, his details provide an experience worth reading. He also provides plenty of background as well as maps and a glossary, so it is still easy to read if you are not a "war buff". I think it is a captivating, well-rounded story, and I would like to see these made into a movie(s).
