Overview

""Letters to Imogene"" provides detailed behind-the-scenes accounts of some of the well known and lesser known battles of World War II, including campaigns in North Africa, Sicily, Normandy and Northern Europe. They are described through the perspectives of three U. S. Army officers, an infantry division commanding general, an infantry battalion commander and an Air Corps fighter pilot. The extensive use of letters to Imogene, from her father, husband, and brother, and her replies, inform the ups and downs of the epic global struggle in personal terms, from both sides of the Atlantic. There are detailed accounts of the battles of El Guettar, Bizerte, Troina, Normandy, Cherbourg, Brest, and the Huertgen Forest, among others. Also included is a detailed description of military flight training in a time of war. The paths of the three soldiers cross in unusual ways throughout the course of America's campaigns in the European theater, from November 1942 to May 1945.
