Book excerpt: "According to the US Armed Services records, many veterans who represented America in the different wars the nation engaged in bore Muslim last names. These veterans were from many different places throughout the Islamic World, Eastern Europe, Albania, Turkey, Ireland, and Italy. The data also mentions some of the towns and cities these veterans came from. Records show that there were very few of them in the early wars and by the time of the Civil War more than two hundred are recorded and, in World War I, they numbered over five thousand. This book is the result of a thorough research conducted by the author on the subject and includes hundreds of Muslim names and the many variations in the spellings of these names..."--Back cover.
