As an author of HF and one whose academic background and teaching career are in History, I have always felt that HF (done well) is an excellent vehicle to open a window to the past. I still remember how vividly ACROSS FIVE APRILS provides a look at the Civil War from one family's perspective (I read the book at the age of eleven or twelve). Anton Myrer's ONCE AN EAGLE remains my all-time favorite novel, with its searing portrayal of the combat experiences of the character Sam Damon. Keep up the great work with your blog! My new novel is entitled THE FUHRER VIRUS. It is a fictional WWII spy/conspiracy/thriller for adult readers and can be found at www.eloquentbooks.com/TheFuhrerVirus.html, www.barnesandnoble.com, www.amazon.com, and on Google Review. Read a recent review by Celia Hayes on PODBRAM. Thanks! Paul Schultz Thank you for highlighting these books.
