"War Stories" author Al Zdon is out with a sequel to his 2003 collection. "War Stories Volume 2: Further Accounts of Minnesotans Who Defended Their Nation" tells the story of another 35 Minnesotans who served the nation from the Civil War to the Persian Gulf.
Like the first "War Stories," this second volume is filled with sober, sad, often stirring stories of Minnesota men and women who did their part and a whole lot more. Proceeds from this second volume will be used to benefit the American Legion's many youth programs.
