Never Home: Remembering the Military Heroes Who Never Returned
Richard Sherman, author
“Never Home: Remembering the Military Heroes Who Never Returned" honors the more than 207,000 men and women who are memorialized in America’s 23 overseas WWI and WWII cemeteries. The author traveled and photographed all 23 American overseas WWI and WWII military cemeteries over the course of eight trips spanning six years and three continents: from Normandy to Tunisia, from Florence to Manila, and from England to Luxembourg. The book features 54 biographies of those who never made it home: from names you know, like Roosevelt and Patton, to ones you never heard of like Vinsant and Summers. The author is a Navy Gulf War veteran and professional photographer, and the book includes more than 225 photos including several of his images from the 75th anniversary ceremony of the D-Day landings at Normandy American Cemetery. The Foreword of the book was written by Vice Admiral Doug Crowder (Ret.), the former Commander of the US Navy’s 7th Fleet (Asia).
