Books

Thank you for your interest in my books!

The seven novels listed here complete a family saga beginning in the 1860s and concluding in the 1960s. The first three novels – “The Legend of See Bird” set are American westerns, covering the life and times of See Bird Carpenter until around 1924. Then a generation passes. The saga is picked up again with the onset of World War II and begins the Stu Carter part of the tale. “The Seventh Cruise” is the story of Stu Carter, See Bird’s grandson, now a young sailor fighting in two oceans. The “Harvey’s Creek” pair of books is the story of his attempt to rejoin civilian life, as told by his son of the same name. “The Green Light” tells the tale of Stu’s son, now grown to manhood, as he searches for his place among America’s most elite fighting force, The Green Berets.

Below, you can purchase my books individually or as collections for discounted pricing. All the pricing includes shipping, handling and taxes (in the US).

The Green Light

It is 1968. In Asia, the war in Vietnam rages unabated. In the USA, cities burn amid protests and assassinations. Meanwhile, from the Caribbean to Bolivia, men of the 7th Special Forces wage a secret shadow-war against forces committed to the destruction of the American way of life. Stu Carter, college drop-out and freshly minted Green Beret assigned to Team A-45, must learn to adapt or die in the dim jungle light, while coming to terms with concepts of honor, loyalty, and integrity. The Green Light shines brightly on a largely unacknowledged chapter of the American story.
