Author Description

Ordinary Heroes is a beautifully wrought, finely achieved reconstruction of an elusive, clandestine life-a World War II life, as it happens-by Scott Turrow at the very top of his form. So, be warned, a book to start on a Friday night. Reconstructing the terrible events and agonizing choices his father faced on the battlefield, in the courtroom, and in love, Stewart gains a closer understanding of his past, of his father's character, and of the brutal nature of war itself.
