Graphic Novel
From bestselling author Max Brooks, the riveting story of
the highly decorated, barrier-breaking, historic black
regiment—the Harlem Hellfighters
In 1919, the
369th infantry regiment marched home triumphantly from World
War I. They had spent more time in combat than any other
American unit, never losing a foot of ground to the enemy,
or a man to capture, and winning countless decorations.
Though they returned as heroes, this African American unit
faced tremendous discrimination, even from their own
government. The Harlem Hellfighters, as the Germans called
them, fought courageously on—and off—the battlefield to make
Europe, and America, safe for
democracy.
In THE HARLEM HELLFIGHTERS,
bestselling author Max Brooks and acclaimed illustrator
Caanan White bring this history to life. From the enlistment
lines in Harlem to the training camp at Spartanburg, South
Carolina, to the trenches in France, they tell the heroic
story of the 369th in an action-packed and powerful tale of
honor and heart.
