With $5,000 in travelers' checks, a letter to deliver to a stranger's grandmother in Leeds, and a plan to meet his friend Duke under Big Ben, Nolan boards a flight to London alone. What follows is a raw, funny, and deeply human journey through fog-drenched English streets, Socialist soapboxes at Piccadilly Circus, coin-operated heaters in freezing Leeds hotels, and the shadowy underground networks offering young American men a way out of the war. Running from War - Europe is a coming-of-age adventure set against one of history's most turbulent backdrops. It is a story about friendship, fear, freedom, and the choices that define a life-told with the honesty of a young man who had everything to lose and a whole world left to see. When the world is at war, how far would you run to find yourself?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nolan Pepperdine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798240983641\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kitsap Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/04\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.34d","brand":"Nolan Pepperdine","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48874766008575,"sku":"9798240983641","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/running-from-war-europe-nolan-pepperdine-9798240983641","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
