A War Far Off: Letters to My Granddaughters About My Service in the U.S. Navy in the Second World War

This book contains 40 letters I wrote between 2002 and 2007 to my granddaughters, ages 14 and 11 to start with, about my years in the U.S. Navy—1944 to 1946. I also have much to say about the folly of war, my family, and about government as it affected us.
