At First Light: A True World War II Story of a Hero, His Bravery, and an Amazing Horse is slowly making headway. The publisher sold out of the first printing (1,000 hard-cover copies) in the first few months after the April 19, 2022 release. The second printing (also a hard cover) was 3500 and they are almost sold out of it. A soft cover edition was released on Amazon.com the first week in February, 2024. This new edition corrects some editorial mistakes and factual errors.
This book has received better reviews and won more awards than any book I’ve written, including :
I’m delighted that the book has received over 500 5-star ratings on Amazon, GoodReads, Barnes & Noble, Walmart, and Target. If you’d like to leave a star rating at these sites, send me an email and I’ll send you the links and some posting tips. Thanks for considering this!
Also, as a result of the book,
Last, but not least, at my website, www.drwalt.com, I started a new blog series on January 1, 2023: “Where Was Phil Larimore 80 Years Ago Today.” If you subscribe to the blog (it’s free), you can follow more details and history about his WWII exploits that were in the book. I’ll also be putting in all of the letters he wrote home from January 1944 through at least the end of 1945.
Stay tuned for my blog tomorrow. I’ll be sharing the very best review ever for the book.
