Alert me when new John J. Pullen titles are added

Bio: John Pullen was born in Amity,Maine and spent his early years on the family farm.Amity is approximately an hour ’s drive from the Patten Lumbermen ’s Museum,a museum John called “the most wonderful museum in the world probably because I spent my early youth in the sort of life it portrays and am able to write this elaboration upon its exhibits and know it tells a clear,coherent story of this life.” John was a graduate of Colby College of Waterville, Maine and served in the Second World War in the Third Army.He spent several years as the Creative Chief at the Philadelphia firm of N.W.Ayr,a leading advertising company of that era.But,John wanted to write.His first book -the first Civil War regimental history -,The Twentieth Maine:A Civil War Volunteer Regiment (1957)is still in print and has become a classic.He went on to write and publish five more books,the last one in 1999 -Joshua Chamberlain :A Hero ’s Life and Legacy. Men,Horses and Beans is one of a few unfinished pieces of work that John never had time for until,unhappily,he became bedridden in September of 2002.He was most anxious to make sure the story of the Patten Lumbermen ’s Museum was told for the preservation of its history John spent the last five months of his life finalizing his legacy and passed away on February 25,2003.
