The Siegfried Family like many of ours settled in Glenside, Pennsylvania, outside of Philadelphia, and we all grew up knowing and going to school with each other.
John Siegfried's first book "Six Degrees of the Bracelet: Vietnam's Continuing Grip" has an official publication date of 11-11-11 - Veterans Day. John was nice enough to include a Chapter dedicated to our brother, Bill Jamison, and about the five Jamison brothers who served during that era.
I have read many parts of the book over the last year - it is compelling, sad, patriotic, strong, introspective, heart warming and heart wrenching all at the same time. It is a real tribute to the men and women who served in Vietnam, and in many cases provides their first hand accounts of the War and its impact on our country and them as individuals.
I highly recommend it.
You can secure copies through:
www.johnsiegfried.com; (contact John directly if you would like signed copies) www.amazon.com; or www.xlibris.com
The book comes in hardcover ($29.95). Soft cover ($19.95) or E-book s for $3.99.
On Mon., Oct. 3rd John will be at The Glenside Pub for a book signing from 7-9 PM. I hope as many of us as possible will make it, and also buy this book. You will note many other events on John's web site, including other signings in the Glenside area.
Thank you, Lon
