Blessed Are the Merciful, Our Forgotten Soldiers
The website is www.blessedarethemerciful.net
There is a book trailer and excerpt from the book. You can also order an E-book if you want to.
The website for A Healing Place is:
www.novelahealingplace.com
I don't know for sure about the E book for it since it was my first one, but it also has a book trailer, reading excerpt and other information.
Both books can be ordered from Amazon also.

Blessed Are the Merciful, Our Forgotten Soldiers
My correct blog address is: http://blessedarethemerciful.posterou....
Blessed Are the Merciful and A Healing Place are both available in e-book format.
Blessed is set in the Philippines during WWII and includes a romance between a female and male soldier (she is a nurse but on the front lines rendering aid), and also the battles and lives before and after the Allies were forced to surrender. I have included quotes from several people including Generals Douglas MacArthur, King, Wainwright, poems and a letter written by a 19 year-old soldier poet who knows he is dying of starvation, which will really tug at your heartstrings. I described the lives of both the POWS and nurses and civilian interred at Santo Tomas. I even have some interesting facts included about the person behind the cruelty played out in the book during the "Death March" and how Emperor Hirohito played a part in the treatment. The book also explains why the Philippines was not receiving any food or aid from the U.S., even during battle. Obviously,I researched the subject well before I wrote the book.
I describe the battles they fought, as well as the 64 mile "Death March", the POW camps and the Hell Ships they endured, emphasizing the cruel treatment by the Japanese captors.
I hope that those of you who are planning to read it, will pick it up and give me an honest review. Thank you, Joyce Shaughnessy
