""With elements reminiscent of Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms,
in the midst of World War I, a relationship develops between an
English lieutenant and a young Russian nurse-a surprising
tenderness against the backdrop of war...with likable characters,
spending more time in the Old World is an appealing prospect."" -
Kirkus Reviews
Lieutenant Robert Fitzgerald has managed to retain his sanity,
his humanity, and his honor during the hell of WWI's trench
warfare. Charlotte Braninov fled the shifting storm of the
impending Russian Revolution for the less-threatening world of
field camp medicine, serving as a nurse in the most hopeless of
fronts. Their friendship creates a sanctuary both could cling to in
the most desperate of times. Historical fiction about life, loss,
and love, By the Hands of Men explores the power that lies within
each of us to harm - or to heal - all those we touch.
"A truly remarkable historical novel- so finely rendered in
period detail - that the reader becomes one with the plot and
characters." - RICK FRIEDMAN, FOUNDER, THE JAMES MASON COMMUNITY
