The collective memoir of a close-knit platoon of scouts from Sicily invasion to liberation of Dachau. Joseph E. Garland (September 30, 1922 - August 30, 2011) was an American historian and journalist who wrote extensively about the city of Gloucester, Massachusetts and its fishing industry. Garland was born in Massachusetts in 1922 to a prominent Boston area family. Garland's degree at Harvard University was interrupted by service in the United States Army in 1943. Following the war, he worked as a reporter for the Minneapolis Tribune, Providence Journal, and Boston Herald, before settling on Eastern Point, in Gloucester, Massachusetts in the home of his great grandfather Joseph Garland (mayor). While living in Gloucester Garland was an involved community member, notably acting as the first president of the restoration project of the Adventure (1926 schooner). Mr. Garland wrote more than a dozen books about Gloucester and Cape Ann, beginning with the 1963 adventure classic ?Lone Voyager,?? a biography of Howard Blackburn, known as the ?Fingerless Navigator.?? With his wife Helen?s encouragement, Mr. Garland completed his most expansive book, ?Unknown Soldiers,?? in 2008. The book, decades in the making, originated with Mr. Garland?s own war diary, recovered by a fellow soldier after the future author was wounded in battle. In the early 1970s, Mr. Garland set out across the country to track down his old Army buddies, equipped with a tape recorder and a bottle of bourbon. But when he sat down to write the book, Mr. Garland found himself stricken with a colossal case of writer?s block. It would be decades before Helen, a wartime pen pal with whom he later reconnected, realized that he was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. She became convinced of it after reading Dr. Jonathan Shay?s landmark 1994 book about combat trauma, ?Achilles in Vietnam.?? Talking with Shay about his war experience enabled Mr. Garland ?to rear back and whack through?? his inability to get started on the book, he told The Boston Globe in 2008. A painstakingly detailed document of the ordeals of his Army brethren, the book is also the author?s anguished cry about the futility of war. With Unknown Soldiers, internationally acclaimed author Joseph E. Garland presents World War II through the eyes of a close-knit infantry platoon-men who braved Nazi fire to stake out the front lines of the Allied campaigns in Sicily, Italy, France, and finally Germany. The book began as Garland's wartime notebooks, and follows his journey from privileged Harvard student to "dogface" with the 45th Infantry Division on the Winter Line and then Anzio beachhead. During the 1970s, still struggling with war's aftereffects while attempting to write his memoir, Garland tracked down some 20 buddies. Most had rarely spoken of the war to anyone; they talked to Joe with grit and humor and suffering intact, and the story grew into a collective memoir.
