Produktbeschreibung
Book Three of Twenty Lives at War tells the Great War through 20 stand-alone stories-twenty ordinary people trapped in one extraordinary storm. A Kansas farm boy meets the trench line. A French baker hides ration bread for hungry children. A Harlem bandleader plays jazz for sleepless wounded men. A German conscript writes letters he cannot send. A Serbian girl runs messages through shelled streets. A nurse in a canvas hospital counts time by ambulances. A British chaplain bargains for one more prayer before the whistle. Across oceans, a U-boat lookout scans gray water; in a munitions plant, a girl learns how sparks travel; a telegram clerk chooses which words to deliver. From mud and barbed wire to factories and kitchens, these lives reveal courage as endurance, rebellion, and homefront hope. Read in any order or straight through.
Autorenporträt
SCOTT HAMELE was born and raised in Kansas and has called the Kansas City area home since 1991. Married for more than thirty years, he treasures time with his two daughters and two grandchildren. Scott studied engineering at the University of Kansas, where he began writing articles and newsletters for university clubs. He was first published in an ASME engineering publication in 1992 and went on to author dozens of published articles in the commercial construction sector. In the 2000s, Hamele turned his research instincts toward historical fiction, developing more than a dozen story concepts-many of which have matured into his recent publishing journey. His work spans a wide range of genres, including historical fiction, near-future sci-fi, narrative biographies, and feel-good short stories. A prolific storyteller, Scott has more than two dozen works to his credit.
