OverviewDelayed Legacy is part love story, part wartime thriller, part coming-of-age struggle. The book is also a compelling real-life reminder that the human story is not over when a war ends. After his mother died in 1993, Conrad John Netting IV found a footlocker packed with his father's wartime records and mementos yielding as many questions as answers. Then a letter arrived from France searching for the family of the pilot whose strafing and subsequent death saved the writer's village. This is not a fable but a true story, advised one French newspaper covering the dedication of a monument to Lt. Conrad John Netting III in 2002. Upon reading the wartime letters of Katherine and Conrad Netting, I was thunderstruck. Theirs was a story unlike anything I had ever encountered before. . . . His fate adds a poignancy and resonance to the larger account, and the astonishing after-story brings it all to the present day. -- Andrew Carroll, editor of The New York Times bestselling War Letters Full Product DetailsAuthor: Conrad John Netting, IVPublisher: Maverick Publishing Company Imprint: Maverick Publishing Company Dimensions: Width: 16.00cm , Height: 2.10cm , Length: 23.60cm Weight: 0.476kg ISBN: 9781893271371ISBN 10: 1893271374 Pages: 211 Publication Date: 01 October 2005 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Hardback Publisher's Status: No Longer Our Product Availability: In Print  This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
