FELDPOST LETTERS Volume 2 continues the tragic story of the German people, who were caught up in a war not of their own choosing. The majority of the population in 1939 was strongly opposed to war, especially those who remembered the suffering they endured in World War I. When war did come, they prayed that it would be a short one, and that their lives could quickly return to normal. It was not meant to be. This volume offers personal correspondence during the twilight years of the Third Reich: 1943-1945. The hope in these letters is now merely to survive the insane world in which innocent people lived and died. None of the fanatics are represented here. Only the truly innocent, and they are not afraid to pour their hearts out. Experience first-hand the hopes and dreams, fears and suffering, of ordinary people caught up in events far beyond their control. "If only this lousy war would end. The devil is loose. The world has gone mad."

"Nobody told me about the death of Willi." The people throughout Germany were starving. There seemed to be little hope. They had seen a time when a wheel-barrel filled with paper money might be enough to buy a mere loaf of bread. Who could believe it? The war to end all wars had created a nation filled with misery and hopelessness. Into this dire situation walked Adolf Hitler, and he began telling people there was a different way. They listened, and they wanted to believe. Then on September 3, 1939, the unthinkable happened. Britain and France declared war on Germany. For most of the German population, this was their worst nightmare come true. Family members and friends were dying once again in battle. They could only hope that the Fuehrer knew what he was doing, and that this war would end very quickly. In FELDPOST LETTERS Volume 1, experience first-hand the hopes and dreams, fears and suffering, of ordinary people caught up in events far beyond their control. As one so bravely stated in a letter home from the front, "I hate this war."

In "Hollywood Legend: The Johnny Duncan Story," Johnny Duncan and author Richard Lester take the reader on a journey from a depression-era farm in Missouri, to Hollywood during the golden age of the movie studios, and then back to the family home in Missouri. Johnny Duncan still remembers walking to school barefoot in worn jeans, as his parents struggled to avoid losing their farm and going to 'the poor house.' Against all odds, Johnny turned an Irish two-step into polished dance routines that would wow Vaudeville and attract the attention of Hollywood talent scouts. Shortly after arriving in Hollywood as a teenager, Johnny found himself cast in movies with June Carlson, Humphrey Bogart, Spencer Tracy, Jimmy Cagney, and Marlon Brando. As an adult, he lived next to Audie Murphy, his weekend hunting companion. Johnny's big break came in 1949 when he was cast as Robin in the serial adventures of Batman & Robin. More movie roles followed, and then he started appearing on the new medium of television. Johnny's story will thrill and amaze all who love movies and the iconic stars who made them. He was there, working and socializing with them, and his memories are destined to become a fascinating addition to the history of Hollywood.
