A conscientious objector from the hills of Tennessee, Alvin must first reconcile his religious beliefs with his country’s call to arms. Once in France, York and his comrades quickly learn the brutal realities of trench warfare. Ordered to make a charge across no-man’s land between the opposing armies, York’s actions against overwhelming odds earned him a place among the pantheon of American heroes.

Trace York’s journey from Pall Mall, Tennessee to the battlefields of Europe and home again. Explore your own beliefs about fighting for your country with the conscientious objector activity. Draw an original World War I poster and learn more about the weapons that made this war so deadly. Study President Wilson’s War Message to Congress and engage the whole family with the "For Family Discussion" questions. A brief bibliography lists suggested resources for additional reading or learning activities. Become part of the action to "make the world safe for democracy" with the Sergeant York z-guide!
