James McBride's powerful memoir, \"The Color of Water,\" was a publishing phenomenon, spending more than two years on the \"New York Times\" bestsellers list and becoming required reading in high schools and colleges across the country. Now, in his long-awaited second book, McBride turns his highly acclaimed talent as a storyteller to fiction. Based on the historical incident of an unspeakable massacre at the site of St. Anna Di Stazzema, a small village in Tuscany, and on the experiences of the famed Buffalo soldiers from the 92nd Division in Italy during World War II, \"Miracle of St. Anna\" is a singular evocation of war, cruelty, passion, and heroism. It is the story of four American Negro soldiers, a band of partisans, and an Italian boy who encounter a miracle-though perhaps the true miracle lies in themselves. Traversing class, race, and geography, \"Miracle at St. Anna\" is above all a hymn to the brotherhood of man and the power to do good that lives in each of us. It reveals to us a little-known but fascinating moment in history through the eyes and imagination of a gifted writer. Like \"The Color of Water,\" James McBride's stunning first novel will change the way we perceive ourselves and our world.
