Produktinformationen zu „A Generation of Three (ePub)“
Arguably the most profound fifty years of American history came in the twentieth century with involvement in both World Wars, Korea and Vietnam.
The Taylors were caught in this period with three generations being sent to war, starting with Jeff flying over Western France where he commands an ambitious assassination mission. Unfortunately, it is a mission that is doomed to fail.
Returning home, Jeff marries and has a son, Robert. Jeff is assigned to flight training, where Robert grows up. Robert demonstrates a natural ability, best shown when he serves in the island hopping campaign across the Pacific. Unfortunately, Robert also has to deal with the threat of treason following the internment of his wife and child.
Roberts Son, Glen, demonstrates a remarkable level-headed approach to anything he does and follows his fathers footsteps into the US Navy. In 1968, Glen is shot down over Vietnam. Captured, he is imprisoned by the Vietnamese where fate sees him share incarceration with an old foe.
Eventually, returning home, Glen becomes a test pilot, where he meets and falls in love with an English adjutant. Love blossoms, and a surprising link is revealed one evening. However, tragedy strikes, leaving their future together in doubt.

Autoren-Porträt von Gary Pettit
Born in Northampton, England Gary is married and has three grown up children. He is an insolvency practitioner in England where he is held in high regard for corporate restructuring and dealing with resolving financial difficulties of individuals and companies alike.Outside of his vocation Gary loves sport in general, but particularly rugby, golf and snooker. He even took up the whistle as a football referee for ten years. However, arguably his proudest moment was to run the London Marathon on three occasions, raising money for charity.
Despite a hectic life Gary also enjoys casual reading of military history, from ancient Greece to the Gulf War. He insists it is purely an interest and that he should not be considered as a historian.
Gary’s principal in life is to keep things simple. Never over-complicate matters as it merely adds unnecessary problems that cloud the message. The idea behind A Generation of Three came about 14 years before he put pen to paper. He says the story tries to stick to his principals and hopes readers will enjoy its simplicity in dealing with the emotions it covers.
