I Guess I’ll Start My Own War

Roberts tells the heroic story of 1st. Lt. Eric Wood, Jr. ’42 from adolescence through his definitive years at the Valley Forge Military Academy (VFMA) and Princeton, and finally to the Battle of the Bulge in 1944. I Guess I’ll Start My Own War (Xlibris Publishing) focuses on the determination of Wood and the American troops in the six-week Battle of the Bulge — enduring one of Europe’s harshest winters. As a veteran and fellow graduate of VFMA, Roberts offers an insightful look into the legacy of Wood, whose life was cut short.
