AlbakiReads Editorial

A soldier’s route through wartime Europe

George Mullins’s memoir traces his World War II service from an isolated home in Virginia’s Appalachian Mountains to Normandy, Holland, Belgium, and occupied Germany. Its account is organized around the places and stages of his military journey, including the Allied invasion, a glider landing during the liberation of Holland, and the Battle of the Bulge. Alongside those movements, Mullins describes the immediate realities of combat: firing a machine gun from freezing foxholes, witnessing destruction, and forming close bonds with fellow soldiers. The book brings a personal perspective to the experience of the European campaign and the daily conditions faced by one serviceman.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in personal accounts of World War II military service.
  • Readers seeking memoirs set across Normandy, Holland, Belgium, and Germany.
  • Readers interested in soldiers’ day-to-day experiences and comradeship during wartime.

Book overview

Foxhole is a deeply personal story of a young man's experience in World War II. George Mullins takes us on his journey as he travels from his isolated home in the Appalachian Mountains of Virginia to the beach in Normandy as part of the Allied invasion, then landing in a glider in the liberation of Holland, next came the Battle of the Bulge in Belgium, and on to the occupation of Germany. Mullins shares his thoughts as he fires his machine gun from freezing foxholes, sees the devastation of war, and develops deep friendships with comrades in arms. In these thoughts, observations, experiences, and fears; the day-to-day reality of war comes to life.
