Produktbeschreibung

J.D. Karns / Janet Beasley's historical fiction novel is fast becoming a viral sensation! It is based on the actual journal kept by Carl Lee Young while he served in the U.S. Navy during World War II. He sailed aboard the DE-416 USS Melvin R. Nawman, and escort vessel. Karns has brilliantly woven Carl's journal entries together with fiction to vreate an entertaining, breathtaking, and highly factual account of the war from a sailor's point of view. Experience everything from the great typhoon of 1944 to Iwo Jima and Okinawa, and from the atom bomb to the sighning of the treaty that ended the Second World War. It is an emotional roller coaster ride between the on board action and the family back home. The realism of not only the war but also the era has been captured with expertise. In real life Carl's younger brother, Charles, longed to hear his big brother's WWII story. When Carl retuned from the he promised his little brother that someday he would tell him all about it. That day came 68 years later when Charles began receiving journal entries from Carl via email. The entries sent totaled 168. Charles, 82 at the time, teamed up with his daughter, five star author Janet Beasley, and together they created a dream come true for Charles and his brother to be able to hold a published copy of Carl's story in their hands before being called to Heaven. Charles passed in October of 2017. As of January 2018 Carl is still living at the age of 92! Charles left his pen name to Janet to carry on writing more wonderful stories in historical and other fictional genres.

Janet stepped out of her popular high fantasy genre, co-wrote, with her 82 year old father, [the now late] Charles Young (J.D.
