During World War I, a US-led effort saved nearly ten million civilians from starvation in Belgium and northern France during the German occupation, yet one of America’s greatest humanitarian efforts is virtually unknown today. Miller brings this inspiring story to light as he recounts compelling stories of daily struggles to survive the Great War.
Jeffrey B. Miller is a Denver writer, magazine editor and book author. He's started six magazines, was editor-in-chief of five inflight magazines, and was director of communications for AAA Colorado, where he supervised the company's website, magazine, public relations, public affairs and traffic safety.
