Requests:  0 Summary:  "In Invisible Generals, Melville shares his quest to rediscover his family's story across five generations, from post-Civil War America to modern day Asia and Europe. In life, the Davises were denied the recognition and compensation they'd earned, but through his journey, Melville uncovers something greater: that dedication and self-sacrifice can move proverbial mountains-even in a world determined to make you invisible. Invisible Generals recounts the lives of a father and his son who always maintained their belief in the American dream. As the inheritor of their legacy, Melville retraces their steps, advocates for them to receive their long-overdue honors and unlocks the potential we all hold to retrieve powerful family stories lost to the past" --   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 355.00922 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 355.00922 Melville Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 355.00922 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList
