A stirring wartime poetry collection that captures fear, resolve, and humanity during World War I.
This collection, The Paths of Glory, gathers voices from combat zones and home fronts to illuminate the war’s human cost and momentous moments.

The volume invites reflection on courage, loss, and the enduring hope for peace through stark, moving verse.
