"CONFESSIONS OF A WHITE HAT" BY ED GALING

NOW AVAILABLE

CONFESSIONS OF A WHITE HAT
by Ed Galing

$6.87
[which includes shipping]

Full of tales of Ed's younger life in the U.S. Navy in the late 1950's/early 1960's, this concept chapbook follows Ed, now 90 years old, on a spiraling tale of self-discovery and self-worth in the Naval ranks. In poetry full of secrets revealed, losses recounted, friendships made, and bridges burned, Ed talks of the struggle to gain status, economic stability, and self-importance in the eyes of peers, chiefs, captains, home, and society. The poems are touching, honest, painful, and reflective, as you feel for knowing that most of the men in these ranks are gone now. Ed is one of the last of his breed, and this poetry chapbook proves he has staying power and that his memories on paper will linger as long as the history and tales of his now-defunct Naval air station.

Poetry chapbook now available from Propaganda Press. $6.87 [which includes shipping].
