Nicholas Dick, Jr. (1934–2005) saw grueling combat action during the Korean War. This is his gripping autobiography told as only a soldier can tell it—from the foxhole. Despite his injuries, he survived to produce this provocative tale of men at war. Janet Dailey (1944–2013) was born Janet Haradon in Storm Lake, Iowa. She attended secretarial school in Omaha, Nebraska, before meeting her husband, Bill. The two worked together in construction and land development until they “retired” to travel throughout the United States, inspiring Janet to write the Americana series of romances, setting a novel in every state of the Union. In 1974, Janet Dailey was the first American author to write for Harlequin. Her first novel was No Quarter Asked. She has gone on to write approximately ninety novels, twenty-one of which have appeared on the New York Times bestseller list. She won many awards and accolades for her work, appearing widely on radio and television. Today, there are over three hundred million Janet Dailey books in print in nineteen different languages, making her one of the most popular novelists in the world.
