Folks--

The National Museum of American Jewish Military History had a book talk for Michael Geheran's Geheran, Comrades Betrayed: Jewish World War I Veterans under Hitler a few days ago.  The recording can be found here. (Full disclosure:  I'm the series editor for Cornell, the press that published Comrades Betrayed)

To commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Hong Kong, Canadian Military History will be publishing a special issue in fall 2021. We invite submissions that examine the Battle of Hong Kong from multiple perspectives. Canadian and non-Canadian perspectives are welcomed.

I will certainly take the observation of a consultant clinical psychologist most seriously. And, thank you for ordering the book. It's been an amazing journey.

There is nothing wrong in this day and age in blowing your own trumpet, as no one else would touch it with a barge pole.

The history of COSSAC has needed a new look at it, Mr Merriam's text (even though it had three enhancements) was COSSAC's official history (published before the Invasion of Normandy). While General Morgan's "Overture to Overlord," came out in 1950!

So I have just ordered a copy.

Dear Colleagues,

Embracing the concept of self-promotion, I am delighted to announce the publication of my first book: COSSAC: Lt. Gen. Sir Frederick Morgan and the Genesis of Operation Overlord. It's available at Naval Institute Press. Here is a link for more information and reviews.
