A Hundred Years of Tears
One Soldier's Story from the Savannah to the Somme
by Anna Guess Pick


Follow in the boot steps of Sgt. John Guess, a young soldier from Southern California and recipient of America’s Distinguished Service Cross, as he tells the story of his journey from the farm land of the Savannah Ranch to the farm lands of France which have now been turned into major battlefields. His actual letters, written mostly to his mother, in the few months before his death on November 7, 1918, tell this touching story.
