The second volume in theWar Stories: World War II Firsthand series tackles the largest amphibious invasion ever attempted until that time -- the historic landing at Normandy on June 6, 1944. More than eighty veterans on both sides of the Atlantic Wall give their perspectives on the event, and the bloody two-month struggle which resulted in the Anglo-American allies wrestling France from the German defenders. Preparations for Operation Overlord, including air and sea operations to support the gargantuan landing are covered in vibrant, authentic detail. Rich with color images, famous photographs and original 3-D maps, the 9" x 12" volume also presents the timeline of events, places and personalities, giving a complete picture of the campaign across France. The volume won a Silver Medal in the 2012 Independent Publisher Book Awards (IPPY) in the World History category and Best Book 2012 in the History: Military/Political category from USA Book News.
They Called Themselves the Battling Bastards of Bataan
This fully-illustrated account details all the major battles, decisions and outcomes as the Japanese military sought to collapse the United States' principal military enclave in East Asia and seize a country rich in natural and human resources for their Greater East Asia Prosperity Sphere. The planned 50-day campaign took 133 days because they underestimated the grit of their foes. Despite horrendous conditions, lack of air support, food and medicine, sheer grit compelled the Americans and Filipinos not to give up, even if the rest of the world had given up on them.

Starting with the background of Japan's rise to military prominence and the Asian country's aggressive behavior against its neighbors, this graphic history covers all the significant events leading up to that fateful aerial attack on December 7, 1941. Japan's simultaneous surprise attacks in the Philippines and elsewhere in Asia and the Pacific are included, as is America’s reaction to the bombing of Hawaii. Also includes the introduction to a serialized adventure graphic novel set during the War in the Pacific entitled Separated by War.
Battle of the Bulge: Attacks and Counterattacks
Monroe Publications welcomes the next issue in its World War II Comix series: Battle of the Bulge - Attacks and Counterattacks. This graphic history comic book chronicles the continuing campaign in northern Europe in late 1944 and early 1945. The sixth issue in the popular series also includes a new installment of the serialized graphic novel, Separated by War. After the steady but frustratingly slow advance to break out of Normandy (as told in World War II Comix' D-Day and the Campaign Across France), the Allied forces moved rapidly to the edge of the German homeland. But stiff resistance from the Wehrmacht's West Wall defenses slowed the advance. The Allied leadership then sought ways to do an end run around the strong static forces and fortifications. The Allies also had to contend with extended supply lines and leaving some German strongholds at their backs. Battle of the Bulge - Attacks and Counterattacks reveals every detail of the campaign through original lavish visuals.

Like the Halls of Montezuma and the Shores of Tripoli, Guadalcanal will forever be a part of United States Marine Corps history and lore. On this rustic South Pacific island, Marines made the first invasion of lands seized by the Japanese in their initial sweep through the region. At stake was air superiority in a wide area of the South Pacific and beyond. The bloody six-month campaign ended with U. S. and Allied victory, but in the process thousands of lives and dozens of ships and planes on both sides were sacrificed. Comic book includes graphic history and continuation of the serialized graphic novel Separated By War.

Throughout my adult life I had often been saddled with that empty unsettled feeling of disconnection and a strong desire to go home. A desire to be close with loved ones and familiar settings tugged at me sometimes leading to depression and regret; something was missing in my life that I couldn't quite describe. In these pages a lifetime of thoughts all seeking that answer come together. Memories, Lessons, Wisdom, and the discovery that what was missing in my life and many others are simpler times. The place we have been longing for isn't a place at all, rather its a state of mind in which we can cry without regret, smile without guilt, and hope with complete abandon. Jay is a love letter to the lives and events that sculpted that hope filled state of mind in an attempt to share it with the world.
