This boy, Eacliffe, his family, and all of England are suffering through the horrors of Hitlers relentless bombings of their homeland. Unable to act decisively, Eacliffe sees himself as a coward, not like his father and brother who have gone to war. Evacuated to a rural area with other children from the neighborhood, Eacliffe and his sister are taken in by an older couple who will care for them through the rest of the war. It is in this safe, rural setting that Eacliffe, having stumbled upon subterfuge and intrigue, finds the patriotism and courage to become one of the unknown warriors . . . whose bravery, according to Churchill, will never be recorded. The War of the Unknown Warriors by Mary E. Dombach
