“Having been a previously published author the traditional way, I conducted some research on Outskirts Press and other publishers since I wanted to consider this time self-publishing. Due to the time sensitive source of information for my book, I needed the publishing process to be faster than before, and I wanted to have as much control over what my message was and how the information was presented. My entire experience was not stressful, and Outskirts Press met my expectations throughout the publishing process and in the quality of the final product. I would recommend Outskirts Press be considered for any publishing needs.”

An Inspiring Survival Against All Odds
For most of us, WWII is nothing more than interesting history. We read about it; we understand its impact on the shape of the world; but it doesn’t have personal significance. This book will change that and turn it into a personal and spiritual experience. This is the story of an old-fashioned Southern gentleman, a compassionate and loving man, whose character was tested in ways few of us can even imagine. Raised as an orphan, he joined the U.S. Navy in a search for opportunity and stability in his life. He could not have guessed that he would spend three and a half years as a POW at the mercy of the Japanese after the fall of Bataan and Corregidor. He endured the death march,numerous prison camps, and was transported on the infamous “Hell Ships” to Sendai, Japan, where he worked in prison camps as slave labor in lead and zinc mines. During his time as a POW, he was subjected to and a witness to unspeakable atrocities and cruelties that would have embittered and destroyed most men. Instead, these incredible trials and experiences brought out the deepest strength: the will to survive, and a determination to embrace even the most unthinkable suffering with the knowledge that it had something to teach him and benefit him later in life. Framed with spiritual context that lends an even greater depth of meaning to this extraordinary man’s experience, Love All Men, Have Lunch With a Few shows us, through the example of a humble, loving, and always-evolving man, the good that can come from even the bleakest circumstances.Outskirts Press Review
