Rich Exploration of the Changing Values

His debut novel, The End of the Empire, is a rich exploration of the changing values that have shaped our country since the Second World War, particularly what people love, whom they love, and how far they will go to find and protect that. The story takes readers from the suburbs of Minneapolis to the State Department in Washington, D.C., to the hardscrabble hills of Appalachia, down winding streets in Bulgaria, and into the mountains of Afghanistan.

The End of The Empire

The End of the Empire is an eighty-year-long saga that tells the story of three generations of the MacAlpine and Bergen families, while at the same time paralleling the trajectory of the nation. The story begins after best friends Harold Bergen and Cameron MacAlpine return from World War II, and begin to pursue their dream of building families and community.

NOVEL EXCERPT
The USS Wakefield pulled into New York Harbor in November 1945, filled with returning United States servicemen. They had won the war, VE Day had come and gone, VJ Day had also come and gone, and now they were free. Cameron MacAlpine and Harold Bergen rode the train home west to Saint Paul, Minnesota, Harold's hometown. Cameron grew up in Big Piney, Wyoming, an orphan who had enlisted as soon as war was declared. The two young men were paratroopers together in the 101st Airborne Division and best friends. Copies of The End of the Empire are available for purchase on Amazon in both eBook and print-on-demand formats, CLICK HERE
