John Chase is a retired Orthopaedic surgeon who has now released his 2nd book, "Searching for John DeWitt". He and his family found 80 letters his Grandfather wrote home to his family when he was a runner in the trenches in WW1. He used those letters with extensive research to craft a book of narrative non fiction around those letters.
Along with the narrative around those letters this book is also the story of Dr Chase trying to find out more about his grandfather besides the the old man he knew as a teenager.
Says John "Here I am, an old man, getting to know a very nice young man through his letters-who just happens to be my grandfather!"
I have a trip planned soon to visit the places wher my grandfather fought and ran the trenches in WW1
