Just released: an updated edition of my Vietnam War era novel, "Peace to You Too, Brother"! The updated edition, released on Nov. 30, 2023, includes expanded scenes, and builds in additional significant events of the war, providing the reader an enhanced education and understanding of the decades-long War in Southeast Asia that cost the lives of 58, 272 Americans. The updated version is available at Werner Books, 3608 Liberty Street, in the Liberty Shopping Center. I will be doing a reading from the updated edition on Sunday, December 17th from noon to 2 p.m. at Werner Books; a free cup of coffee from the bookstore's cafe will be provided to all attendees at the reading, while a signing will take place afterward. Stop by if you get a chance! All of my books are available at Werner books, or through this website. They make great inexpensive Christmas gifts!
