Autorenporträt
After retiring from academic medicine, I moved to the ocean and learned of WWII Japanese submarine and balloon bomb attacks on Oregon. With extensive research, consultation and trips to Europe, Latin America and Asia, I have now published three historical fiction novels: Enemy in the Mirror: Love and Fury in the Pacific War; The Osprey and the Sea Wolf: The Battle of the Atlantic 1942 and Night Fire Morning Snow: The Road to Chosin. My website www.enemyinmirror.com is intended to promote understanding of America and her enemies in wartime.
