Synopsis
To the Last Man: A Novel of the First World War is a historical novel written by Jeff Shaara about the experience of a number of combatants in World War I. It was written as a stand-alone novel, but could also be viewed as a prequel to the project that Shaara is currently involved with, which is a trilogy about World War II in Europe and North Africa. The novel is based on the arrival of American troops and General John J. Pershing on the Western Front in 1917.
Reviews
The Graham-Tewskbury feud on which this story is based is as legendary out West as the Hatfield-McCoy feud is back East. Zane Grey, of course, adds his own twist to the facts, but over-all this is probably the most accurate accounting there will ever be, as Zane Grey was able to talk to old-timers who were still living and had gone through the feud. The one scene with the hogs is the one most readers will never forget, and is based on fact. The "Romeo and Juliet" part is consistent with other romances written by Grey, and has to be in the story line to make it historical romance, which is what he considered himself to be writing---not westerns!
