Diggers / by Viktors Duks. - Raleigh, NC : Boson Books, ©2002. - 1 online resource
Title from PDF title page (viewed Oct. 6, 2008).
This book is the story, intimate and moving in the telling, of a group of Lativan men who refer to themselves as the Diggers. This platoon of digger colleagues gathers from disparate fields and disciplines. Digging in the old trenches and sunken bunkers of the Latvian forest, you may find, among others, the Communicator, the Classicist, the Forest Man, Little Spirit, and the venerable Legend. Their abiding interest is in discovering and preserving what happened in the Latvian forest during the two major wars of this century. As they uncover the large number of men left dead in their last defensive fortifications, the Diggers often think that their work is perhaps the only semblance of victory to have occured in that place.
