THE VOYAGE OF THE SS JEREMIAH O'BRIEN is about the only Liberty Ship of the 2751 built between 1941-1945 that returned to Normandy to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of D-Day where she made 11 crossings between England & the beaches with troops & supplies. We also look at the Cadet from the United States Merchant Marine Academy aboard the O'Brien in 1943-1944 but missed the Normandy Invasion, however he was able to return for the second run in 1994. She was visited by President Clinton & reviewed by Queen Elizabeth II. The O'Brien was crewed by all volunteers & steamed 20,000 miles without a major problem.

“This is Raymond Chandler for feminists.” ―Sharma Shields, author of The Cassandra “An expressive and striking story that examines what one does for family and for oneself.” ―Kirkus Reviews Jane’s a very brave boy. And a very difficult girl. She’ll become a remarkable woman, an icon of her century, but that’s a long way off. Not my fault, she thinks, dropping a bloody crowbar in the irrigation ditch after Daddy. She steals Momma’s Ford and escapes to Depression-era San Francisco, where she fakes her way into work as a newspaper copy boy. Everything’s looking up. She’s climbing the ladder at the paper, winning validation, skill, and connections with the artists and thinkers of her day. But then Daddy reappears on the paper’s front page, his arm around a girl who’s just been beaten into a coma one block from Jane’s newspaper―hit in the head with a crowbar. Jane’s got to find Daddy before he finds her, and before everyone else finds her out. She’s got to protect her invented identity. This is what she thinks she wants. It’s definitely what her dead brother wants.

A stunningly photographed examination of the roadside icons that dot America's landscape. Lost America celebrates the boom-to-bust towns, aircraft bone yards, and filling stations of days past that were sacrificed at the altars of speed and technology and relegated to windswept desert plains and abandoned fields. The eye-catching and memorable photography is complemented with a succinct text history that details the rise and fall of each subject. The result is an impressive tour of an America still standing, yet largely forgotten.
