Publisher's Synopsis
Allan "tex" Burdick is a handsome, intelligent man who has developed the skills needed to achieve early in life--a wonderful woman to have and to hold--and the skills needed to be a hot-shot Transport Pilot in World War II. Through his daughter, Nancy Burdick's thoughtful and sure voice alongside his letters back home to his steadfast wife and others to his friend, Joe, this is the story of his strong-will, his love for family, his drive to accomplish--and a weakness he has held as a secret. The author paints a detailed picture of Tex Burdick's wartime life and her journey of reconciliation with her memories of her loving, yet flawed father. A must-read!
