In the spring of 1941, with Europe consumed by war and occupation, Britain stood alone against the Nazi menace. The United States remained wary of entering the fray. But for five extraordinary young Americans, the global threat of facism was too great to ignore.

Six months before Pearl Harbor, these sons of New England privilege left their Ivy League schools and promising futures to cross the Atlantic and join the beleaguered British Army.

A fitting tribute to five men who put their lives on the line to honor a commitment to freedom which transcended national boundaries, Into Dust and Fire is an inspiring true tale of idealism, courage, camaraderie, sacrifice, and heroism.
