Webster’s just-published WW2 memoirs, “Thirty-Five Missions Over Japan.” Read first-hand accounts of training and piloting B-17s and B-29s, Webster’s thrilling missions between Saipan and Japan, and the P-51s and P-47s out of Iwo Jima that flew alongside. Written from notes made in 1944/1945, stored undisturbed in an Army-issue briefcase for over 60 years. Drawn from vivid memory and written during the seven and a half hour flights back home after missions--notes about the fighters they had to contend with, planes shot down, flak encountered and damage done. This book puts you in the pilot's seat during one thrilling mission after another.

The young widower is dedicated to an equally youthful George Washington, who soon sends him as a delegate to the Albany Congress. There, Ephraim will join with world-famous men to encourage the bickering colonies to unite and defend against the French. Should their efforts fail, London will be forced to dispatch a commander-in-chief of their own. Through grit, this general will forcibly yoke the thirteen colonies and take the largest army ever gathered on American soil into the wilds. Will he heed his provincial advisors and fight a different type of war? Or, will he march to battle in the European way? Regardless of his choice, Providence has decreed that men and women will be swallowed by an epic conflict. Lives collide with one another and history, proving that individuals affect the fate of nations. Savage War snaps to life amidst a contest of body and will. It ends in a bubbling cauldron of strife along the banks of the Monongahela. Savage War is a brilliant yarn that gives breathtaking life to the birth pangs of a nation.
