I was delighted to see this article in North magazine about my father, his WWII heroics, and the award-winning book about him and the men with whom he fought.
Sorry the resolution in the picture above is not so hot. Here’s the text:
Local Author Memorializes His Father’s Heroism
This Memorial Day, remember the countless soldiers who were on “the forgotten front: by sharing the riveting true story of Lieutenant Philip Larimore, whose astonishing experiences in southern Europe during World War II are revealed for the first time by his son.
Walt Larimore is a retired family physician and best-selling author of nine novels and memoirs, as well as several other publications.
His latest book, “At First Light: A True World War II Story of a Hero, His Bravery, and an Amazing Horse,” received a Silver Medal from the Military Writers Association of America. It is an International Page Turner Award finalist in five categories and is currently in judging for several other Book of the Year awards.
Readers on book review websites (i.e., Amazon, GoodReads, and Barnes & Noble) regularly rate “At First Light” a five-star read, with many calling it the best WWII book that they’ve ever read.
A review by General David H. Petraeus, retired four-star general and former director of the CIA, reflects on “the story of our WWII heroes, those selfless Americans who put it all on the line downrange…” Petraeus also calls the story “extraordinary: an almost forgotten hero, tough combat, tragic sacrifice, gripping aftermath, a marvelous horse, and an astonishing ending.”
