"Book 1 of the Arizona Rangers series" 
Based in 1860's Arizona, this is a tale of the Old West and the creation of the Arizona Rangers. Captain Blake leads the only band of Rangers, where pay rarely comes on time or if at all, and the men are responsible for the procurement of their own horses, needed tack and the bullets for their pre-Civil War weaponry. Former Indian Fighters, hunting guides, desert miners and U.S. Army Scouts, these are the courageous men who join the ranks of the Arizona Rangers. Captain Blake needed men who shared in his vision to bring law enforcement to the Arizona Territory and to stop the Apache, Comanche and Ute Indians from their continuous war against the wagon trains and the settlers. In this first book of a planned series, the Territorial Government of Arizona feels it can no longer afford to provide their limited funding to the Rangers and disband them. Blake and his family live on their horse and cattle ranch outside Globe, Arizona, and when the Civil War breaks out, he and his former Rangers join up with General Hook's Army of Texas. Blake is given the rank of Captain, and his comrades become part of his mounted company. In fighting the Civil War, Blake and his men are captured by a superior force of Union Soldiers and taken by open cattle cars to the El Mira Yankee Prisoner of War Camp, New York City. Here, where conditions are wretched, with prisoners starving, and the icy weather is freezing prisoners to death, Blake and his men stage an escape, only to discover the war would be ending in only a week. Now, no longer fearful of being caught and returned to El Mira, the men have an adventurous and rewarding journey back to their homes. When Blake arrives, he finds the Apache have raided his Ranch, killing his wife and son, and his daughter was missing. His only family now is his foster-son, the only survivor of an Apache attack. A lot of the men have similar tales to tell, families gone and their property seized for owed back taxes. But, Blake finds out the Arizona Rangers are once more needed, as Arizona is hit with cattle and horse rustlers, fraudsters, and gunmen, who work for dishonest lawyers, in the pockets of East Coast land speculators. Such criminals are coming to Arizona by the hundreds. There is also the rise of the Indians, who watch in alarm as the tracks are laid for the horrifying Iron Horse. Captain Blake also learns his young daughter was not killed or living with Indians, but she has fallen victim to Comancheros, who have passed her on to white slavers. Captain Blake now begins a lengthy search to find her. While this is a work of fiction, this story is based on the history of the Arizona Rangers, and the gallant men who patrolled the Territory of Arizona.

During training Matthew becomes close friends with John Adams, a tough-skinned Afro-American youth from the poorer neighborhoods right outside our nation’s capital, and Jose Martinez, a street wise Chicano from East Los Angeles. Together they experience the rigors of Airborne training and journey to Vietnam to become Screaming Eagles, of the 101st Airborne.

​Placed in 2nd Squad, the story follows the actual events surrounding D Company during the intense battle for Hill # 937, which would later be known as the “Battle for Hamburger Hill”.

"Book 2 of the Apache Snow series" 
Over 58,000 men and women bravely gave up their lives in the 10-year Vietnam War. Now, reverently remembered, their names are etched upon “The Wall” in Washington D.C.

​But, what of the millions who fought in this unpopular war? Men and women, who came home, were spat on and called names, such as ‘Baby Killer’, or ‘Nixon’s Gestapo’. Eighteen-year-old Christian boys, who lost their faith after first pulling an M-16 trigger. Today, these men walk streets as homeless drunks; many hooked on narcotics. Countless warriors suffer from various levels of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Former 1st Lt. Bill Warrens, U.S. Army platoon leader and college graduate, is one such warrior. He’s haunted almost nightly by the same PTSD nightmare; smothering him. The effects caused him to lose job after job. He left his family and way of life, becoming a vagrant. Now, dying from alcohol poisoning, he awaits death in a Los Angeles Veterans Hospital. However, a concerned Pastor Joshua Sanders, a Vietnam combat veteran, becomes drawn to help Dr. Scott Ahern, former combat medic, with PTSD outpatient groups and hospital in-patients. VA health care is limited by budget restraints. Obtaining medical appointments can often take months.

Pastor Sanders discovered mislaid paperwork for Bill Warrens. Inside, it’s revealed Bill was to be decorated with the Medal of Honor, the highest military honor bestowed upon servicemen, for his gallant actions performed on Hamburger Hill in 1969. The award received for the same deeds that haunted his impaired mind, through distorted nightmares. Now it’s a race to cut through red tape, so Bill Warrens is awarded his medal, before meeting his Maker. If the race is won, William Warrens Jr. will see his father’s eyes light up with wondrous amazement, upon seeing the men he thought his actions had caused the death of.

An epic worldwide apocalyptic thriller that will keep you turning the pages!” 
​​​​Set in the near future, a planet-killer comet is en route to destroy the earth and the proverbial doomsday clock ignites a world panic. World War III becomes a nightmarish reality. 

A massive Oriental army leaves most of the world in a smoldering ruin as their nuclear missiles, followed by biological and chemical weapons, exchanges impact strikes with dwindling world powers. The earth responds with a multitude of great quakes, volcano eruptions, and towering tsunamis. Plagues then spread across the globe, leaving two-thirds of the world's population dead. 

The United States government ceases to exist as a power, with only small groups of survivors to live off the land, as all communications are destroyed. Starvation and sickness take its deadly toll. 

Cannibalism returns. The US is now left wide open for the Oriental Alliance Pact to move against North America, using the Alaskan-Russia Bering Sea ice bridge to bring their great armies and heavy armor across. An under-manned Alaska Defense Force division of Eskimo and Native Alaskan troops stand ready to oppose the Oriental hordes. 

The long feared Antichrist rises in France and leads the New European Empire against Russian units and an eventual strike against Israel. 

"A Coming Storm" is an apocalyptic tale, which focuses mainly on the military and civilian heroes who do battle against the ungodly forces outside of Israel.
