My Summer Working in the Connecticut Tobacco Fields: And Other Commentaries (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781664133433)

This book contains a collection of four memoirs by Dalton Henson, who was the protagonist in John Veteran's three novels, along with some miscellaneous "nonsense and trivia." John Veteran is the pen name of an author who wishes to remain anonymous. Now 78 years old, the author recently retired from a 49-year career as reporter/photographer/editor for small weekly newspapers in the Southern USA. Prior to that, at the age of 24, he was drafted into the U.S. Army during LBJ's "Vietnam buildup" in September 1966. He served for two years, including the second year in Vietnam. After being discharged, he worked on a novel for a year. Unable to find an agent or publisher, he began his newspaper career. His previous books (all self-published) include three novels--The Friendly Stranger + Lead Me, My Shepherd; A Would-Be Adventurist's Quest for Combat; and Three Novels by Dalton Henson--and a book of political, philosophical; and social commentaries, The Downside of Eternal Life and Other Commentaries.
