AGAINST THE ODDS
Permalink   


Firstly, let me start out by thanking all those forum members who so graciously answered my questions and provided information in my 3 1/2 year journey to complete my father's story of a WWII Pathfinder Pilot.  The book is done!  Please contact me if you want further details or wish to have your name on a list for a signed copy.  If you would like to see a synopsis/review of the book done by Sean Feast, author of Carried on the Wind, Heroic Endeavour, Master Bombers and most recently A Pathfinder's War, please visit www.authorhouse.com/bookstore and look for the free preview under the subject book title. Once again, thank you to all.
Leslie

Hello Leslie; any chance your book on your Father's career will be at Nanton this coming Saturday? They will be celebrating Ian Bazalgette and will have the Mayor from the French village there. I will be there along with 4 other Ex-Airmen and my books will be on site. Should be quite a bunch of potential buyers.

John

Hi John
Unfortunately not.  I do not have the books in hand as yet and probably won't have them for at least another 3-4 weeks.  Too bad, it would be a good venue.  If you would like I can send you the press release by private email along a photo of the book cover.  I see the press release did not come out on my post.  I guess this program does not allow me to copy and paste.  May be I should just type it out.
Leslie
P.S.  I will also send you the photo of you and me from the POW luncheon from a couple of years ago when Dad attended.
