—"The best works by living writers on the heart of New Orleans." Miz' Remy is the author of Annie.
This is an honest book, an account of life in the military by a man who served as a British soldier in Northern Ireland and in the Falklands War.What is intriguing is his honesty that the posters, the idea of the trim uniform caught a young man’s yearning for adventure, for place, and pride. When he says that:
Denmark notes that his initial attraction to the armed services had a lot to do with extravagant recruitment posters of soldiers skiing, of soldiers walking sunny beaches. It also had a lot to do with relief from the drudgery of factory work. In fact, after a brief hiatus from the military, Denmark re-enlisted and attempted Para training.

Kingman Davis I have only just been told of this post so I am sorry about the delay. I have emailed the address so you can e mail me directly. You may ask me questions with regard to my tour in Northern Ireland and I will answer if I want and more importantly if I indeed can. What you won’t do however is Question me in the sense of demanding answers. I hope that makes my position clear.

Read Jerry Wenstrom's review of Loving.
Rhea and Jordan Devereaux had it all: undying devotion, a tender love, and a grand passion. And then the Vietnam War separated them. Follow the course of their love across time and space. Journey with them through the steaming jungle; dance with the Mardi Gras revelers while revolution unseats Louis XVI and protestors on the Washington Mall scream, Hell, NO. We won't Go. Sail with Laffite's pirates into Devil's Isle and rejoice as an unconditional and timeless love emerges victorious.
