About the Book

One Soldier's Journey During World War II Told Through His 114 Letters Home.This is unfiltered history told through one soldier's (114) personal letters sent to his mother, father, and sister during WWII, spanning six years of adventures across the U.S. and South Pacific. Each letter is transcribed along with high resolution images of each letters and postage. Available in full color or black and white.The author or these letters was Dwight Earl Margrave, who wrote them to his parents and sisters from 1940 to 1946. Dwight was 1/4 Sac and Fox, Native American Tribe. Julia Margrave Steere, his daughter compiled the letters into a manuscript in 2012. Her son, Christofer Johnson has recently brought them to publish during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Published for Americans who love history, especially those whose parents and grandparents built this great nation out of the depression and helped win World War II in both Europe and the Pacific.As Ever, Dwight is not a story of combat, but a story of a single soldier's journey from Nebraska to the Northwest in search of work, and to the Alaskan Territory to build air bases, before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. The story continues throughout the United States and Canada and eventually ending in Okinawa, Japan right after the atomic bombs were dropped. The story concludes in Nebraska where like so many other veterans, Dwight started his own business, applying the skills and discipline he learned while in the Army."It was an honor and a privilege to have been afforded the opportunity to read the manuscript for this amazing, humbling, and invaluable narrative about an everyday American choosing his life's path in an unabashed search for freedom, adventure, and ultimately, Love itself."- Dennis M., MAJ., US Army"From the moment I saw the handsome soldier sitting on the stoop of his parent's front porch, I was intrigued by the idea of catching a glimpse of one man's life during wartime. Not just any war but the deadliest conflict and greatest threat to democracy in our history. With raw eloquence, moving still photographs, and an inspiring heart, Letters Home is a genuine made in America journey through the mind's eye of an "All American" boy from the heartland to the battle field, as he emerges a self-made man during one of our nation's most tumultuous eras.With raw eloquence, moving still photographs, and an inspiring heart, Letters Home is a genuine made in America journey through the mind's eye of an "All American" boy from the heartland to the battlefield, as he emerges a self-made man during one of our nation's most tumultuous eras." - David K."The realness of the letters pulled me back into that time period. I felt the cold he mentioned and the longing for home when times were tough. Such a wonderful personalized touch that is just made even more personal by the actual letters. - Jo R."I casually picked up the book one evening and started to read. I could not put it down until I finished reading the last letter." - Stefanie M.
