Courage of the Heart

The author, Christine Chatterton, has written a true historical narrative of World War I based on the letters found in the house of her husbands grandmother after her death. This is an intimate account of two families and three brothers from western Illinois, each facing the Great War in uniquely different ways. It is the extraordinary love story of Haidee Wilson and Maurice Chatterton, written in their own words, spanning the years from 1915 until 1923. This is an odyssey of courage, hardship, war, death, illness, and finally, survival and a love that endured. This is an American Odyssey.
