This unique dual biography chronicles the WWII experiences of two US airmen, one of whom was captured by Nazis, while the other bombed Germany. In February 1945, the Allies launched Operation Thunderclap, a series of maximum efforts against cities in eastern Germany. These deep-penetration raids would tax the bomber crews immensely, as well as bring new devastation to cities yet untouched by US airpower. Meanwhile, the Nazis attempted to move all their prisoners beyond the reach of the Soviet Army’s advancing spearheads, forcing thousands of Allied POWs on a five-hundred-mile, three-month trek that would come to be known as the Black March. Two B-17 crew members, a copilot and gunner, trained together in Gulfport, MS, and, in Fall 1944, were assigned to the longest-serving and most decorated US bomb group in England. However, their paths then diverged. The copilot flew thirty-one missions until the war’s end; the gunner was shot down and captured on his very first combat mission. These crew members both lived—one through Thunderclap and one through the Black March—and this is their story: an account of both constant air combat and travail on the ground. The copilot participated in the bombing of Dresden, where he witnessed a city already too far destroyed to expend additional bombs. The gunner survived the March, and once time was up for Germany, experienced a period in Soviet captivity. This unique book on the Allied air campaign offers new insights into what our fliers truly saw and experienced during the war.

Precision bombing of military targets was a reality in World War II by the end of 1943. By February, 1945, the war in Europe was nearly over. Why, then at that Tate date, was the city of Dresden destroyed by allied firebombing? In addressing this quest ion, the Dresden case study examines the evolution of bombing practices on both sides during the war in Europe. Both British and American bombing policies are scrutinized. Objectives, both military and political served by the Dresden bombing, are explained. Public reaction to the bombings in the U.K. and the U.S. are discussed as well as the reaction of both Governments to those reactions. Finally, the study examines the doctrine of Just War, draws conclusions and provides commentary.

“THUNDERCLAP: The Coming Struggle for Acadia” is a fictional tale set during King George’s War in America (an offshoot of the War of the Austrian Succession in Europe, 1740 – 1748) and its aftermath. It tells the story of how two military officers – one who is French and one British- are caught up in events leading to the so-called French and Indian War in the theatre of Acadia, 1755-1763. The French officer, a Lieutenant André, finds himself serving in the increasingly desperate effort to oust the British once and for all from their decades-old conquest of Nova Scotia (1710). The British officer, a Captain Bradford, fresh from serving in the suppression of the Scottish Rising (1745-1746), arrives in the midst of the war waged by France and its First Nation or ‘Indian’ allies against the British in Nova Scotia. He finds himself assisting the new British governor, Edward Cornwallis, with establishing an English `beachhead` settlement called “Halifax” and expanding British control over the restless French Acadian population through the construction of a series of forts in and around existing Acadian communities. While the careers of the two officers follow parallel yet separate courses during King George’s War, they inevitably cross paths and both participate in the cataclysmic clash known as the French and Indian War (1755-1763)-a final conflict which saw the Expulsion of much of the Acadian population from Nova Scotia and a determination of which European power- France or Great Britain- would ultimately emerge supreme on the battlefields of North America. A prequel to my novel “Fire Over Acadia”, this new tale introduces readers to the “backstory” for several of my primary characters, and completes a trilogy of tales about the colonial wars impacting Nova Scotia.
