The Tenth Trail Mark

This is the story of the men who climbed.

In the dead of night, Johnnie Grey leads the legendary 10th Mountain Division up an ice cliff the Germans call unconquerable. One slip means oblivion. One victory could liberate Italy.

Johnnie’s survival instincts, honed in the Adirondack wilderness, hunting through blizzards and the Great Depression to feed his family, are his greatest weapon. But his heart belongs to Ellie, the West Virginia farm girl who slips a silver St. Andrew’s Cross around his neck: a trail mark of love meant to guide him home.
