I wanted to reach out here and give everyone heads up of a new book written by my AT hiking friend Clay Bonnyman Evans. Clay’s grandfather was 1 of 3 who received the Medal of Honor during the Battle of Tarawa back in November of 1943. For those of you who do not know, the Battle was a 3 day all out assault of a heavily defended island in the Pacific.
The book is about his grandfather (who was awarded posthumously) and how Clay went to Tarawa and exhumed his grandfather’s bones. Clay shared the details with me as we hiked. It seems like the kind of book some TBhers might like.
The book is now available July 3rd!
