About the Author
In this powerful book, Haney explores the impact of war on an American family. He skillfully weaves together those memories with his parents' wartime letters and his mother's recollections to create a unique blend of history and memoir. Through his father's letters he reveals the war's effect on a man who fought in the Battle of the Bulge with the 17th Airborne but wanted nothing more than to return home. Haney illuminates life on the home front in small-town America as well, describing how profoundly the war changed such communities.
With When Is Daddy Coming Home?, Richard Haney makes an exceptional contribution to the literature on the Greatest Generation--one that is both devastatingly personal and representative of what families all over America endured during that testing time.
