About the Book: Near the end of World War II, four soldiers from the Army’s Negro 92nd Division become separated behind enemy lines in Italy. Despite facing discrimination at home, they risk everything for a country that treats them as less than equals. In the Tuscan village of St. Anna di Stazzema, they find unexpected humanity among villagers who protect them and an orphaned child who shows them silent affection. Miracle at St. Anna is a powerful story of courage, survival, and redemption. Adapted into a major film by Spike Lee, this novel by James McBride brings this lesser-known history to life with unforgettable depth.
