Harry Goldgar
Comments on The Greatest War Stories Never Told from my high school writing teacher, Harry GOldgar, now 85 and living in New Orleans.
I am up only to 1642 so far in The Greatest War Stories. I am reading now and then, you see, savoring each vignette, but no farther along because of my crippled vision joined to the manifold interruptions and errands of an existence depending on erratic buses and walking to get places other folks zip to in cars. I love the surprising anecdotes, the attractive page layouts and illustrations, the down-home style and especially your slightly ribald sense of humor which pervades everything I'll comment further when I finish.
Always a little nerve wracking when revered former teachers are reviewing your work,and clearly the final verdict isn't in yet--but it sounds like I'll get a passing grade.
