DELPHIE'S TRUNK

DELPHIE´S TRUNK is a historical memoir/biography circa World War II. The author has transcribed over 250 letters, V-Mails, and postcards written mostly by her father to his mother, who kept them safely stowed in an old wooden trunk until she died in 1973. Through the correspondence, records, and memorabilia found in her Grandmother’s trunk and further historical research, the author weaves a experiences as a Midshipman at Annapolis and as a young Naval officer serving primarily in the Mediterranean during WWII. The author expands the story into a poignant biography of her father filled with loving memories and touching insights. The book is a daughter’s grateful tribute to the father she lost so long ago, as well as a universal tribute to all Veterans of World War II.
