About the Book

Heart of a Warrior is a rousing tale of a footloose Chicago delinquent that goes to war. His journey starts in Naval Aviation where after a rough start he finds friends, hookers, glory, love and tragedy. He is wounded on an early mission and his injuries take him off flying status so, rather than fly a desk he volunteers for a top secret program that finds him entering the submarine service at the height of WWII. He soon learns what his mission and training were leading up to and embarks on a series of adventures that reunite him with old friends and make him a witness to history and a pioneer into the future. Heart of a Warrior takes the technology of the War efforts Manhattan Project and spins off a second group of scientists working on Nuclear Propulsion as the first group struggles to develop the Atomic Bomb. Based on actual History, the navy's original project for the first nuclear reaction under Stagg Field at the University of Chicago was the development of power for ships. The actual project was put on hold during the war to concentrate on development of the Bomb. Heart of a Warrior explorers what might have happened had equal resources been applied to the potential of powering warships. History would have been advanced 15 years and the first nuclear submarines could have emerged in 1944 rather than 1959.
About the Author: Born in Chicago in 1947 I grew up listening to the stories my father and Uncles told of their experiences during World War II. The only time they spoke of the war was at family gatherings when in the company of other veterans and I was fascinated by the stories and sought the men out and listened. The stories sparked a lifelong interest in History and common men faced with the realities of war. I went on to serve in the United States Air Force, get married, father two children and make a carrier in Purchasing and New Product development for Brownells Inc. and Battenfield Technologies. Having attended Gunsmithing summer courses and worked in the firearms industry for over 25 years I learned a great deal about the subject. My writing career started with Magazine articles dealing with firearms restoration and repair and have appeared in several national magazines including Shotgun News, Shooting Times, and American Gunsmith. Always a storyteller, I have tried to combined my love of history, knowledge of firearms, and the stories my father and uncles shared into stories of my own. Today I live in Missouri with Cecile my wife of 45 years and our dog Amber. I consider myself blessed with two grown children and four grandchildren.
