Segments - The Stories Behind the Poems is a collection of poems that are easy to read and are understandable. Also included are short stories for each poem so the reader can understand and relate to them. There are many feel-good stories and some very sad ones as well. But all in all, this is a feel-good book that you will enjoy now and for years to come. You will find yourself opening this book up many times to share the stories with your children, families, and friends. About the Author Throughout his entire life, author Charles Messina has always been optimistic about everything that happens. He believes you should read through both ends of a book before you determine whether or not it is a good book. He has been through a lot in his lifetime but still manages to walk around with a smile on his face. Although he has been through some tough times, one thing he believes in and usually preaches to others is that no matter how hard you think you have it, someone out there has it a lot worse than you. Charles is a very easygoing person, and he enjoys making others smile and feel good. He has never been the type of person who has asked for much of anything. If he has a fishing pole, a baseball bat, a roof over his head, clothes on his back, food on his table, and a healthy lifestyle, then he is happy. His favorite pastimes are fishing and baseball. He also loves kids and loves seeing them happy. If he can get everyone who reads this book to smile and feel good, then he has accomplished the main reason he wrote this.
Autorenporträt
My father served as a PFC in the Marine Corps during WW2. His story begins in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in September 1941 with his enlistment in the Marine Corps, and ends in December 1942 at Guadalcanal when the 1st Marine Division was relieved by the Army. It takes the reader through boot camp, advanced training, a voyage to New Zealand for combat training, and into the jungles of Guadalcanal where they fought against the Japanese Empire.As his son, I made it my job to thoroughly research every detail of his story and to back it up with actual dates, facts, and statistics. The book is visually stimulating, entertaining, and educational at the same time. Readers will be moved by his story and gain a great deal of insight about one specific unit of the 1st Marine Division.
