I just finished a book for Zenith Press called "Stay the Rising Sun." It's the story of the USS Lexington, the Navy's first true aircraft carrier, and the WW II Battle of the Coral Sea (where, sadly, "Lady Lex" was lost). Should be out by March of 2015. Next I'm turning my attention to the "Wild West" and a story about a forgotten American hero who, in his day, was truly larger than life. More later as the book develops...

On Pres Truman: Truman thought Gen MacArthur was dangerous & egotist. He also didn't tell the Gen about the Abomb until two days before it was dropped because he didn't trust him in that he might talk to the press. I don't get it, why would he later put in charge of the Amer occupation of Japan and later putting in charge in the Korean conflict? Wouldn't Truman know that there would a good chance for conflict?
