An astounding story.” —Harrison E. Salisbury, The New York Times “A narrative of combat superbly told.” Chicago Sun-Times “Vivid...almost unbelievable.” Omaha World Herald “Engrossing...a superb re-creation of the battles.” Spokane Chronicle Blood and Ice On November 11, 1918, World War I officially ended. But for the men of the ill-starred American Expeditionary Force to North Russia, the fighting had only begun. Plagued by meager supplies, poor leadership, and the lack of a clear-cut objective, this small but valiant American contingent fought impossible odds, scoring several stunning victories against the Bolsheviks before superior numbers and the bone-breaking arctic winter that had defeated Napoleon forced them to withdraw. Now, in the clear, forthright account, E.M. Halliday re-creates one of the most obscure but important of America's foreign interventions: an epic of confusion, endurance, failure—and gallantry—that history almost forgot and the Russians never forgave. Perhaps the Russians have never forgotten these events?
