This book is a reprinting of a previous book by John Veteran, Beheadings Over the Years and Other Commentaries, with five new commentaries added. The commentaries cover a variety of philosophical, political and social subjects. John Veteran is the pen name of an author who wishes to remain anonymous. Now 78 years old, the author recently retired from a 49-year career as reporter/photographer/editor for small weekly newspapers in the Southern USA. Prior to that, at the age of 24, he was drafted into the U.S. Army during LBJ's "Vietnam buildup" in September 1966. He served for two years, including the second year in Vietnam. After being discharged he worked on a novel for a year. Unable to find an agent or publisher, he began his newspaper career. His previous books (all self-published) include three fact-based, non-fiction novels, The Friendly Stranger + Lead Me, My Shepherd; A Would-Be Adventurist's Quest for Combat; and Three Novels by Dalton Henson.
