Description

“I enjoyed Dear Mom, Dad & Ethel so much I could hardly put it down. It ought to be widely read as an excellent way of recalling World War II.”
—Hans L. Trefousse
Distinguished Professor Emeritus of History
Brooklyn College and Graduate Center of the City University of New York
“
Dear Mom, Dad & Ethel
paints an absorbing picture of the daily life of America’s greatest generation. Vets will find themselves reliving their own experiences—the boredom, the loneliness, the fear, and the role of fate in life and death. For the rest of us, Dear Mom, Dad & Ethel is social history at its best.”
—Dr. Stanley J. Michalak
Senior Associate, Foreign Policy Research Institute, Philadelphia
Professor Emeritus of Government, Franklin and Marshall College

“A vivid story brought to realistic life.”
—Midwest Book Review
“
Dear Mom, Dad & Ethel
delicately mixes fiction and history to tell the story of an American air corpsman during World War II. His precious letters enhance a grand book deserving warm appreciation. People from my hometown will be as moved and fascinated as many Americans who will, no doubt, eagerly read it.”
—Jacques Wynants, Belgian Historian
Author of Verviers 1940 and Verviers Libéré
