Free O-2A Novel Download
 
My new novel, Hamfist Over The Trail, will be a free Amazon Kindle download on August 15, 2012.

The book chronicles the Forward Air Controller adventures of Hamilton "Hamfist" Hancock in his O-2A over the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

More to come??
 
It was great, right up to the end. Don't leave us hanging there. I certainly hope the follow on is well underway.

Not to worry - the sequel, Hamfist Down!, is almost finished. And there's another sequel after that, Hamfist Over Hanoi.

I would really appreciate any reviews on Amazon, plus Facebook and twitter mentions!

Thanks!

Thank you, George.

Hi George,
I enjoyed Hamfist down and am looking forward to book 3. These are the first books I've ever read on an e-reader. I have a nook color, converted to an android tablet with the kindle software installed and it worked well. The software also worked well on my phone.

GNolly 09-23-12 03:34 PM

Thanks!
 
Thanks, Tony! I'm working on book 3 as we speak.

I have enjoyed your books. There are little details that indicate that in fact you have more than some familiarity with the aircraft.
I enjoy these kinds of books, because they tell the story, cover the period of time, and yet don't have the dryness that seems to infect the non-fiction books about warfare, particularly air combat.
When ever I read one, I am reminded of an author I read a long time ago. The book was called "The Few", and not surprisingly was about the Battle of Britain. I remember turning the book over, and the back of the jacket contained a surprise. A picture of the author, and a little information. Makes you wonder.

Larry -

Thank you for your comments, and for the review you posted on Amazon! It's really been a lot of fun writing these books. I've been living in 1969 for the past several months, and now I'm living in 1972 as I work on Hamfist Over Hanoi.

After my first O-2 tour in Vietnam, I had two additional tours of duty as an O-2 instructor. I ended up with a little over 2500 hours of O-2 time.

Great airplane!

Enjoy!
