Coronado 92, Novel is newest release

Living in a decaying, historic Phoenix neighborhood, I was struck by the dramatic stories of its colorful characters and surprised that no one had captured it in fiction.
The 1930 brick apartment building on the novel's cover was my home for many years where I watched a parade of interesting stories move through the Coronado neighborhood.
Wishing to do something fresh in terms of form, I divided the Read more of this blog post »

Rare insights into the Nazis' world by a trusted, even admired, inner circle participant in this dramatic period of history.
