In 1837, during the waning years of the fur trade, a Georgia boy heads west and makes a name for himself among the mountain men. A crack-shot with the Hawken rifle given to him by his father, he encounters Indians, romance, and old west excitement.

Morgan Holt is hired to rescue a captive white woman, Chloe Wayne, from the Commanche Indians. Because he is favorably known by the Indians, Holt has little trouble in being absorbed into the tribe. However, escaping with Chloe is not easy. In the end, Morgan and Chloe fall in love, yet they have to win out over a jealous Indian brave and a conniving husband before they can be free.

Snake, Rolling in Hot is a historical novel about a squadron of Marine Corps helicopter pilots and their crews. It is a true accounting about flying and fighting in Vietnam as well as the training of aircrews before they were sent to Southeast Asia. The combat operations take place in I-Corps in Vietnam and from the decks of navy carriers in the South China Sea. The story also takes a look at some of the wild R & R escapades Marines experienced in Hong Kong, Bangkok, the Philippines and other hot spots around the world. There is also a provocative look at the political scene in the U.S. during the war in Vietnam and how it affected several of the characters in the book in a ways they never thought possible when the war began. With dialog that snaps with electricity and realism, Snake, Rolling in Hot takes the reader into the cockpits of Marine choppers during action packed missions flown against the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army. After reading this book, no one will ever feel the same about helicopters and their crews again.
