Title: Author Revisits the Charge of the Light Brigade Through a Haunting Story of War and Its Aftermath

United States, 26th Oct 2026 — In 1854, a young war correspondent witnesses the catastrophic Charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava — 600 British cavalrymen riding straight into Russian guns. He survives. The question that haunts him: Why did they ride?Years later, the aging reporter, struggling with alcoholism, sets out to uncover the truth about the disaster. Through forgotten diaries, long-hidden letters, and interviews with the daughters of the fallen, he pieces together the life and death of General Robert Dryden — who appeared to be smiling as he charged the gates of hell. But as the past resurfaces, the reporter must confront more than historical facts: the unquiet ghost of the general and the memory of a love he refuses to name.The Call of the Bugle by author and former professor John Amos is a sweeping, multi-generational historical saga set against the stark reality of the Crimean War. It is a haunting meditation on valor and folly, memory and masculinity, and the unspoken costs of war.Readers who love Anthony Doerr’s All the Light We Cannot See or Sebastian Faulks’s Birdsong will find in The Call of the Bugle the same fusion of meticulous historical research and devastating emotional truth.SPIN Magazine assistant editor Charles Moss calls the book “a sweeping, haunting, historical epic that methodically pulled me in and refused to let go.” And Graham Watts, Officer of the Order of the British Empire, said, “The scent of gunpowder and the sense of heroism spreads through The Call of the Bugle like a sizzling fuse.”The Call of the BuglePublisher: Imagination PressISBN-13: 979-8950191015Available from https://www.amazon.com/Call-Bugle-John-Amos/dp/B0H258WCV1 ABOUT THE AUTHORJohn Amos, Ph.D., J.D., is the author of five novels, including the Petr...
