A genealogist, retired counselor, and most proudly a husband, father, and grandfather,
Dr. Turner is best known for his gripping book about Marine Eric England, THE PHANTOM OF PHU BAI, previously a Number 2 Bestseller on Amazon.
He writes only about topics for which he has a deep passion:
THE PHANTOM OF PHU BAI: Eric England, greatest marksman in world history, was a leading scout-sniper in Vietnam who inspired many fellow warriors, and built better men of those who he trained and led. Includes many tributes from celebrity and hero figures.
HIGH HUMOR OF THE HILLS: History's Largest Collection Of True Appalachian Folk Humor. He wrote this book to preserve the real-life, rollicking humor and anecdotes about his people, Appalachian folk. Seeing that the art of traditional tale-telling is dying out, he has captured many wonderful stories that deserve to be preserved.
BLOOD AT ALAMANCE: The Murder Of Innocence... A Governor's Guilt. According to many historians, writers, and motion-picture professionals, this historical novel needs to be shared with the entire world for the preservation of human dignity and freedom. Dr. Turner's actual ancestors were robbed, kidnapped, held hostage (male and female), and murdered by a ruthless governor for the simple act of asking for human dignity. Being considered for a possible motion picture.
WHITE BOY IN THE COLORED SECTION: Inspired by the author's growing up white in the segregated South. A heart-warming journey through soul-searching, overcoming, and building bridges. Being considered for a possible motion picture.
VICTIM OF VALOR: A mind-boggling novel about the author's tour of Vietnam as an 18 year old soldier. Some of the author's fellow psychiatric medics who thought they understood the pathology of mental casualties coming home to Army hospitals, found in many cases their own comrades succumbing to mind-warping combat and day-to-day survival situations. Filled with one young man's adherence to patriotic valor, for which he was endlessly punished. Unique in deeply illustrating the true suffering the vets endured. Victim Of Valor readers will want to hug every veteran they meet.
