Her darling boy : the letters of a mother, her beloved son, and the heartbreaking cost of Vimy Ridge / Tom Goodman.

Goodman, Tom. (Author).

Summary:

Tom Goodman discovered a rich trove of letters between his grandmother and Archie Polson, the uncle he has never met. Reading through the exchanges, Goodman came to realize that war is sometimes about winning, but it is always about loss. He has now collected many of these letters, along with his own contextual narrative, so that we can see the true cost of war to a family and a country.
