Beyond the myth and the legend are their stories as well as his own.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Ghostly Bugles<\/em> is a fictional re-creation of the Alamo story, rich in historical detail with a unique paranormal element. The narrative combines elements of the traditional storyline with contemporary efforts to “Re-imagine the Alamo.” The dual timelines balance our understanding of this world- renowned event and provide new perspective and appreciation for the courage and sacrifice of everyone involved – Texian and Tejano defenders, and Mexican soldiers.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n CLICK TO PURCHASE<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Amazon<\/a>\u2502Wild Lark Books<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Add the book on Goodreads<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n He became the first Alamo Docent in 2004, but the tragic events of 9\/11 compelled him to reactivate his security clearance and, when the approval finally came through, he returned to work in support of U.S. Counterintelligence operations. A stage IV throat cancer diagnosis in 2014 abruptly ended that phase of his life, and he turned to writing to help him get through the chemo, radiation, and surgeries.
