Description: Rendezvous with Death by David Hanna Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description They volunteered for the French, but they were fighting for the future of civilization. Before America joined World War I, a small group of Americans volunteered for the French Foreign Legion to help defeat the Central Powers. Historian David Hanna profiles seven of these volunteers: a poet, an artist, a boxer, a stunt pilot, a college student, a veteran of the Spanish American War, and an advertising executive. All seven men were united in courage; and some, like poet Alan Seeger, paid the ultimate sacrifice. Before he was killed in battle, Seeger penned the immortal words that inspired this books title: Ive a rendezvous with Death At midnight in some flaming town, When Spring trips north again this year, And I to my pledged word am true, I shall not fail that rendezvous. Author Biography David Hanna teaches history at Stuyvesant High School in New York. He lives with his family in Morris County, New Jersey.
