Status Updates From Home Fires of the Great War

I'm curious as to how much Rebekah Morris gathered from her own personal family history, because I cannot fathom a single convincing reason that an American farmer, established father of several children, would choose to join the military forces overseas during World War I. I can't imagine it was that common.

I raraly ever get board reading books, but I'm actually getting a little board here. =P

It's starting to get more exciting.
