TO SEE A GREEN FLASH...
This novel isn’t a war story; instead it is about an era, written based upon my personal background of growing up in a small East Coast town in Maine; the characters are borrowed from larger than life colorful personalities from the memories of my youth. Vietnam has always held a strong fascination for me. I’ve studied the history of that war throughout my life and have interviewed countless Vietnam vets. To See a Green Flash is an accurate story about heroes of that time and within these pages I have tried to honor those great men.
Capturing the imagination of the reader, this novel offers a different prospective of that time. It's about love and about making different choices and their consequences.
My personal experience of growing up during this period is the motivation behind the novel. My father was a teacher and coach during these years. While he supported the military, he did everything possible to get his players and students into college and off the front lines. My childhood memories of my dad’s efforts were the inspiration for this novel.
