Autorenporträt
John William Davis is a retired US Army counterintelligence officer, civil servant, and linguist. He was commissioned from Washington University in St. Louis as an artillery officer in the 101st Air Assault Division. Thereafter, he went into counterintelligence and served some 37 years. A linguist, Mr. Davis learned foreign languages in each country he served. As a consequence of the Cold War and its bitter aftermath he wrote Rainy Street Stories, 'Reflections on Secret Wars, Terrorism, and Espionage'. He wanted to reveal not only true events, but also the moral and ethical impact of the secret world on real people. With the publication of Around the Corner, Davis expands his reflections on conflicted human nature to our present day traumas of fear, and causes for hope.
