Book Description
Len's Boys is a stirring chronicle of wartime adventures, love of home, service stateside and overseas, and the terrible toll paid by those who serve and their families. From May 1943 through the end of World War II, hundreds of Tupper Lake boys who volunteered to serve their country wrote with humor and pathos to three beloved high school mentors-Coach Len Perry, Principal Lawrence P. Quinn, and Father Edmund Dumas. They wrote back to their boys in a weekly newsletter known as the Moaner, keeping them in contact with news from home. These firsthand accounts of wartime experiences are a valuable addition to the history of Tupper Lake, New York State, and the nation. -Caroline M. Welsh, Director Emerita, Adirondack Museum
