They Called Him Marvin: A History of Love, War, and Family

Description

“They were the fathers we never knew, the uncles we never met, the friends who never returned, the heroes we can never repay. They gave us our world. And those simple sounds of freedom we hear today are their voices speaking to us across the years.” —Bill Clinton

Such a man was 1st Lt Dean Harold Sherman, B-29 Airplane Commander.

They Called Him Marvin is a history. A history of war and of family. A history of the collision of the raging politics of a global war, young love, patriotism, sacred family commitments, duty, and the horrors and tragedies—the catastrophe—that war is.
