Inspired by true stories, The Long March Home is a gripping coming-of-age tale of friendship, sacrifice, and the power of unrelenting hope from two New York Times bestselling authors

Jimmy Propfield joined the army for two reasons: to get out of Mobile, Alabama, with his best friends Hank and Billy and to forget his high school sweetheart, Claire.

Life in the Philippines seems like paradise—until the morning of December 8, 1941, when news comes from Manila: the Japanese have bombed Pearl Harbor. Within hours, the teenage friends are plunged into war as Japanese warplanes attack Luzon, beginning a battle for control of the Pacific Theater that will culminate with a last stand on the Bataan Peninsula and end with the largest surrender of American troops in history.

What follows will become known as one of the worst atrocities in modern warfare: the Bataan Death March. With no hope of rescue, the three friends vow to make it back home together. But the ordeal is only the beginning of their nearly four-year fight to survive.

Inspired by true stories, The Long March Home is a gripping coming-of-age tale of friendship, sacrifice, and the power of unrelenting hope.

I will return to submit a review as I have just finished this book and I am flooded with emotions.

Great story

I was REALLY moved by this book. I seldom read books after listening to them, but I will read this one.

The research was impeccable, but the crisp, tight prose was even better, and I’ll remember the priests words for a long time.

An altogether great achievement that has already spurred me to buy two more of Lee’s novels.

Subtle but powerful themes

I fully expect The Long March Home to be long-remembered for decades to come. Friends become brothers and take you to hell and back in a story that will bring you tears and joy and a brilliant picture of the unquenchable will to live and to love. Powerful! Unforgettable!
Too much to condense into a movie, but I could imagine a binge-worthy series.

I’m undone! Beyond Worthy Read!

Great characters & narration, so many atrocities by enemies. If only the world would learn lessons from the past.

The Long March Home. My goodness this one hurt. The unrequited love, love between friends, and growing from boys into men. I felt the words of regret, grief, and loss. The death of Cowboy and difficulty of Jimmy and his father's relationship. The redemption, the forgiveness, the selflessness, and the love between men only forged during times like war was well and beautifully communicated. Billy's encouragement to Hank and Prop to not come back, his attempt to give his life for his best friends so that they might live. Hank and Jimmy saving each other and willingness to die for one another and love for Claire. Decisions made both right and wrong. So much loss and pain. Hank's willingness to risk and ultimately give his own life for others (43) including Jimmy is the kind of love that Christ says for which there is no greater love. War sucks. Love conquers all. Beautiful story. The men who lived and died on Bataan and Corrigidor deserve to be remembered and honored.

Felt like I was watching it happen.

Fantastic

I was blown away and deeply moved by "The Long March Home." Brotherton and Lee have written a gem. The complexities of relationships in the midst of war and deprivation reveal a deep longing knit in the human soul- we need each other. We especially need genuine friendship bonds in desperate times. Book of the year material. Bravo!

Beyond Great!

The narration was great and really pulled you into the story! Some of it was hard to listen to. It was quite graphic, but it makes you even more thankful for the sacrifice our service men have made. They went through so much in that war. Excellent read!
