The My Story: Boys series represents a companion line to Scholastic’s main My Story series, with Jim Eldridge contributing over a dozen titles focused on military history and adventure. The books cover conflicts from Agincourt (2003) and Trafalgar (2002) through the Crimean War, both World Wars, and the Roman invasion of Britain.
Each book is written as a first-person diary by a young man caught up in historical events, from Flying Ace: Jack Fairfax, Royal Flying Corps (2003) to Dodger: The Story of a Victorian Pickpocket (2011). The series makes military history accessible and engaging for young readers through personal narratives.
