Jeep Show, A Trouper at the Battle of the Bulge, by Robert O'Connor tells the story of Jim Hetzer who enlisted in the army during World War II and is assigned to the Morale Corps as an Entertainment Specialist. These soldiers went near the front lines in small groups to entertain the soldiers and help keep up their morale.

In this conversation with Bob we talk about where the idea for this book came from, the challenge of writing authentically from the ordinary soldier's point of view, the way he was inspired by Mark Twain's handling of old ideas in Huckleberry Finn, and the connection between writing this book and the life challenges that led to writing an earlier book, Gumptionaide, about overcoming difficulties.

Bob's website can be found at JeepShowBook.com and the book is available on Amazon.
