Uncle Shelby's Circus
ISBN: 9781418427764 / Angielski / Miękka / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Uncle Shelby's Circus chronicles the day to day life of an American G.I. as recalled many years after war at the urging, and with the encouragement of, family members. This war story, unlike so many others, does not get into the political arena or deal with the battlefield trauma as so many others before. Even in a war zone, this Circus was found to be amusing to the soldiers of A Company, 62nd Engineer Battalion, and the story highlights how the American soldier can, and does, make the best of the bad situations.

1942-1946 the War Years
ISBN: 9781418431624 / Angielski / Miękka / 102 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is not a war time blood & guts story. It is an account of young men thrown together in situations unlike any they previously experienced. Some young adults from the hinterlands were exposed to the modern marvels of indoor plumbing & electricity. I intended this story to be a bio & I can't deny that it is. But it became more about those I served with than about the author. Reports on the progress of the war are interspersed with events aboard ship & is part of the fabric of this story. I was urged to include my return to civilian life as military service terminated, a suggestion I...
