A man survives the horrors of World War One to be returned to the uncertainty of a country and century of contradictions. Trenches tells the story of Charles Smith, a man who sacrificed life and limb in The War to End All Wars, and his quest to recover his humanity and lost faith in a journey that spans the United States and the Twentieth Century. Follow Charles from the battlefields of France to the violently racist American South, and onward, as his path takes him to the Mid-west and the Pacific Northwest on his journey to reconnect with his comrades-in-arms, and to reconnect with a part of himself he though lost forever in a forest in the Argonne. Trenches is a memorable novel of one man's quest to find the better part of himself and of humanity.
