Behind Enemy Lines: a memoir
   Few over fifty can forget the near panic when polio struck. Who next might this dread disease cripple or kill? But to survive polio was just the beginning.
   Rooted in wartime Wisconsin, this funny, sad, and at times wise memoir tells how polio changed a boy's body, shaped his personality, and seemed to rule his life.
  
Behind Enemy Lines brings to life this boy and his family in a way that will warm your heart...and stick to your ribs.

TTM Cover for Website.jpg (40275 bytes) Recent reader says: SUPERB! Most detailed and well documented compilation of information regarding the details of the events FOLLOWING the massacre in 1847 in New Mexico I have ever found!

The Taos Massacres
   On a cold January night in 1847, Col. Sterling Price was awakened at his Santa Fe headquarters with news from an exhausted rider. A mob in Taos had killed the new American governor and was on the rampage.
   Here is a complete, historically accurate telling of that brief time after America's occupation of New Mexico, when neighbor turned against neighbor, patriot fought patriot, and the passion for revenge overwhelmed reason and restraint.
