Synopsis "Greenpoint Doughboy"

When Irish immigrant Alex McKay is interviewed by a reporter in 1911, McKay cheerfully relates that America has given his family everything. Greenpoint Doughboy, a WW1 historical fiction novel, based on a true story follows a Greenpoint, Brooklyn family that stood tall and paid the ultimate price for American citizenship. Greenpoint Doughboy, written by McKay descendent Peter McHale, relates the many sacrifices Alex, his wife, and their four children make during World War I. The Great War rages in Europe, and the McKays are all eager to do their part. Alex's son John McKay, age twenty-one, joins the Fighting Irish Sixty-Ninth Infantry Regiment of New York City. During basic training in Manhattan, John befriends Dick O'Neil, a young man with a heroic future, and Daniel Buckley, an Irish soldier who survived the RMS Titanic sinking. The three will face enormous challenges as they cross the Atlantic and join the fighting in Lorraine. Not everyone will make it out alive. McHale takes you from the bustle and vibrant city life in the Brooklyn Irish community to the muddy, muck-and death-filled trenches of France. Greenpoint Doughboy is a vivid portrait of one family's loyalty and love.
