Coming Soon


The title of this less than 100 page book is: "The Heart is a Hound Dog Baying for Love"
The subtitle is: Gwen Lee Hunt  loves war hero, Clyde Giorgioni.
This work is an epilogue to "The Giorgioni Legend." and is less than 100 pages in length.
For those who have not read the main book, Clyde is the son of Mike and Anita Giorgioni who has just returned from the WW2 famous Battle of the Midway Atoll. where he spent the night in the bowl of his parachute after a botched landing on the  carrier Enterprise.


(I plan to eventually put "The Giorgioni Legend" on Amazon for downloading on your Kindle,


Clyde, after rescue by the submarine Cuttlefish, is awarded the Air Medal and Purple Heart  and returns for a temporary leave to Dallas, TX where he is put in charge of the US Marine recruiting service in downtown Dallas. After a noontime sermon by a newly frocked priest of the downtown Catholic Church, Clyde and Gwen meet. It is at this point that a memorable and tender love affair begins between Clyde and Gwen, she almost exacting the promise that she, raised as an only  child, would tolerate a family of at least five children.


Their marriage is a glamorous and spectacular affair as Gwen's father is CEO of the St. Louis Aeronautical Company.

Alas and alas and alas. After three children Clyde is recalled to duty to again be a fighter pilot in the most savage and deadly battle of all time....the Battle of Okinawa. The author has studied many battles but that of Okinawa .  As I always mix in history with the story, the reader will fine that learning history is quite painless if a part of a story.


I would like very much  to tell you of the bang-up ending as well as some very tender family happening but that would deny you the fun a privilege of discovering happenings in this book which have passed me and others by.


Oh yes, my secretary says that Gwen had Clyde in her sights when she was only a young child. Of course that is something to consider as you read this tale of adventure, romance and action.
