Three Day Road written by Canadian native Joseph Boyden retells the horrors of the first world war and its effects on the young Canadian soldiers who fought in the trenches. It particularly tells the story of two young native men, boys really, who left their homes in northern Ontario bush to travel overseas and fight in France. Friends from early school days, these two men go through changes that are heartbreaking. Boyden's writing is clear and vivid
and remains with you after the last page has been turned.
