Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We have been terrifically busy these past few days. I wish I could tell you all about it, but I can't; my job and what I'm doing here is the most important thing don't forget it. If my letters are full of social activities it's only because I can't talk about the other things, and I do wish I could, I still have some bad moments over these G.I's I take care of - I doubt if I'll ever get hardened to the army. I'd like it better if I could tell it all to you two, who are so close to me. I try to see if the army way, that is that men are expendable, if they fall by the wayside it's just one of those things. It all started over two guys I got in today. Boy I really thought they were goners. But tonight he was rational and talked to me. Well I'm glad he's going to make it. I could go on and say what I'm thinking, that is, he's going to make it to only fight and perhaps be killed. It's a tough war Mom and Dad, and I'm sure learning a life time of experiences."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My interest in USS Howorth originated during my thirty-three months of duty in the Pacific Fleet destroyer Hamner, named after Howorth's gunnery officer killed at Okinawa, Lieutenant Henry R. "Pete" Hamner. His legacy jncluded the Reader's Digest subscriptions his mother presented each year to the wardroom and crew. Later, as executive officer in the hydrofoil Plainview, exasperated by the endless stream of logs and records demanded by higher authorities, I peevishly tested the navy's record system and wrote away for information on Lieutenant Hamner and Howorth. I was surprised by the magnitude of the material documenting Howorth's Pacific War, ranging from hourly barometric readings and seawater injection temperatures to ammunition effectiveness reports.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Letters from the Pacific Front is the story of the extraordinary adventures of an ordinary marine and his brothers who wore their country's uniform during World War II. Bob Magnan walked point as a rifleman on Guadalcanal, survived air attacks on New Guinea, served as sniper on New Britain and directed artillery fire on Okinawa. With thousands of others he prepared for the ultimate invasion of the Japanese homeland that was averted only by unconditional surrender. Along the way Bob's sense of duty grew ever stronger, but his youthful idealism was tempered with healthy skepticism. He basked in the hero's welcome given by Australia to the 1st Marine Division, and he suffered the near-fatal effects of tropical diseases. He mourned the loss of a brother killed-in-action. See the war through his eyes and as he interpreted it through journals and in dozens of letters he mailed home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between May 1943 and April 1945 George Lucas, an ensign on board a service tug in the Pacific, wrote more than three hundred letters home to his beloved wife, Betty. Tucked safely away and discovered only after her death, those letters - the best of which are presented here - provide a fascinating record of World War II behind the lines and an intimate look at a young naval officer's professional and emotional development. A keen observer of his surroundings, Lucas describes life at sea, his shipmates, and exotic island cultures as well as the horrors of war, made particularly apparent to him during a clean-up assignment after the three-day pitched battle for Tarawa. Always informative, often lyrical, these letters stand as a tribute to all those who lived through the war, regardless of their rank or service.

Book excerpt: Paul L. Edwards instilled in his daughter that she could do anything she wanted. He taught her to work hard and play hard. Paula graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Missouri and joined IBM, where she was a manager for many years before taking early retirement. After Paula found her father's World War II letters, she realized they showed her father's love for his wife, and their love created her. So to complete the circle of love Paula compiled all her father's World War II letters as a lasting tribute in "Every Thought of You." Women and men of all ages, lovers, baby boomers, history buffs, and military families will enjoy reading this book of love letters Paul L. Edwards wrote to his bride from training camps and the South Pacific during World War II. They were married November 27, 1941, in Sedalia, Missouri, and on December 7th the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. One year later Paul, a blacksmith who worked for Missouri Pacific Railroad, enlisted in the Navy 88th Construction Battalion ("Seabees") to fight the Japanese and wrote Catherine almost 700 letters, postcards, wires, and V-mail's from December, 1942, to June, 1945. These letters came from Boot Camp in Davisville, RI, two camps in California, and six islands in the South Pacific. After the Marines secured a new island in the South Pacific, Paul's Battalion moved in and built airstrips, roads, and naval bases. Paul belonged to the Masonic Lodge and believed in God, country, and brotherhood. He became an active Christian during Boot Camp. These letters of Paul's true life experiences exemplify: -His patriotism and sacrifices to fight the Japanese who attacked U.S. soil in Hawaii -His love for his wife -His values -The hardships of war on sailors, their families, and friends -The enlisted sailor's view These letters are a piece of history. Always remember the seventh of December! Ten percent of the author's royalties will be donated to Kansas University Endowment, Kansas City, KS, for Parkinson's disease research.
