Wild Blue Ponders

<p>Forged in conflict the United States of America has been at war in one form or another for over two hundred years and at peace for just seventeen. Within seventy-eight mostly undeclared wars over a million souls have sadly perished. In a historical anthology novelist Max Blue shares forty-nine chapters from his twelve published novels set against the backdrop of America?s wars. Divided into six parts Blue?s stories detail diverse battles that include World War I; the economic war of the Great Depression; World War II; the Civil Rights War Korean War and Cold War; academic wars; and the ongoing drug wars that still plague America today. His fascinating tales share a glimpse into a time when President Woodrow Wilson reluctantly led his country into a genocidal European war thousands of World War I veterans desperately sought ways to survive and feed their families ships were torpedoed in a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor and North Korean troops crossed the thirty-eighth parallel to invade South Korea. Wild Blue Ponders shares a diverse collection of short tales extracted from the works of an American novelist that detail the effects and aftermath of war through the eyes of fictional characters.</p>
