Product Description
The story of the Harlem Hellfighters is not simply one of victory in a war. . . . It is the story of men who acted as men, and who gave a good account of themselves when so many people thought, even hoped, that they would fail. What defines a true hero? The "Harlem Hellfighters," the African American soldiers of the 369th Infantry Regiment of World War I, redefined heroism -- for America, and for the world. At a time of widespread bigotry and racism, these soldiers put their lives on the line in the name of democracy. "The Harlem Hellfighters: When Pride Met Courage" is a portrait of bravery and honor. With compelling narrative and never-before-published photographs, Michael L. Printz Award winner Walter Dean Myers and renowned filmmaker Bill Miles deftly portray the true story of these unsung American heroes.

The Book is about WW1 African American soldiers. It tells of the struggles of the Harlem Hellfighters. Some of the struggles they faced were unfair treatment, racism and more. These brave men played an important part in history and I was glad to see this book on these men.

The book was info packed. It also included photos that helped to bring history to life.



A must read for people learning about this period in history
