A collection of sonnets that celebrates patriotism and nationalism loosely arranged in a chronological order based on world conflicts. While many of the pieces evoke a sincerity for the sacrifices made by those who participated in the conflicts, several speak to the seemingly unexplainable behavior of world leaders of the time.
