Novels of the Great War
The Novels of the Great War Series takes readers on a journey back in time to one of the most consequential years of the past two centuries—1918. The characters in these novels are shoulder to shoulder with real American heroes from World War One. These are stories of honor, courage, commitment, compassion, love, and survival against the odds. They give readers unique perspectives and viewpoints from characters not found in other WWI novels.
HOW TO PURCHASE MY NOVELS
Please support your local booksellers and libraries. They, along with authors, are the heart and soul of the literary experience. Bookstores not only sell books but offer a human dimension and community spirit that is absent with online marketing. Libraries are a precious community resource that offer so much more than lending books.
Booksellers and libraries order books through services like Ingram, where my novels are available. I encourage you to consider ordering my novels through your local bookstore or go to bookshop.org to support your local bookseller.
