From the publisher: "Peterson House Books announces the publication and release of THE SUN ROSE CLEAR, STORIES OF WW II AND THE HOLOCAUST, Second Edition, by Appleton author, Lowell Peterson. Initially published in 2002, this new edition offers 358 pages of in-depth interviews and eyewitness accounts of soldiers, sailors, and airmen, many from the local and surrounding area, and includes new testimonials from Holocaust survivors and underground operatives. Extensively researched background material grounds each of the stories in a historical context that offers the reader an understanding of the vital turning points of the battles in Europe and the Pacific. The author's observations of the war's effect on the homefront also provides a broader understanding of a conflict which touched not only every continent and every ocean, but also every household. The bravery of those who fought, and those who died, in the defense of freedom comes through in every story. Lieut. Roland Vogt noted that, 'Uncommon valor was displayed so often, it went largely unnoticed, for it was expected of us.'". SIGNED by the AUTHOR. Second Edition. Softcover.
