Punditry & Prose: Frank's Frankinsense (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781985132610)

Frank Tilton is a retired middle school teacher of German and English. He spent 19 years in Indiana middle school classrooms educating well over 7,000 teenagers. Tilton was at the forefront of "teaching across the curriculum" blending mathematics, science, and history into the teaching of German. How was this possible? He was first a career U.S. Air Force officer. The California native served NATO in Europe and air defense forces in the United States. Following a 24-year USAF career, Tilton launched his second career, teaching, having garnered one bachelor's degree in German, another in English/Journalism, and a master's degree in Radio/Television. Now retired and an author, Tilton has produced offerings as eclectic as his dual career. Most recent works are: Grappling with God and Grammar (a middle school textbook which uses the Bible to teach English grammar), Eternity, a scholarly yet light hearted look at life's biggest question ( an inspirational yet brain-teasing examination of both eternity and its nearly inseparable partner creation.) Earlier works include two novels, Birth Rate Zero (realistic science fiction) published first in Germany, and The Cold War's Coldest Commander (Cold War espionage). He lives in Virginia and is married to the former Josefine Lohse of Germany and has two grown children and four grandchildren.
