CLASSMATE GEORGE REED PUBLISHES BOOK

This month I published John Gray, the last surviving soldier of George Washington’s Revolutionary Army in support of America’s 250th Anniversary this year. It is available on Amazon. The book describes the life of an average Scotch-Irish immigrant family to America whose members became unpretentious participants in America’s transformation from a British colony to an independent nation. Like my prior two books Happiness is a Cool Reactor and The Real Night Order Book, it will also be listed and incorporated into the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. And, like my prior two books, I will be donating a copy of it to the Altoona Public Library this week. Of note is that my wife, Terrie Wise (a 1973 AAHS graduate), is one of John Gray’s descendants !! We’ve been researching her Gray family branch along with many others for the past 30 years after picking up from where her grandparents had left off. So we had a lot of material to go through and condense to create the book. If you like reading about history you may enjoy it. Take care everyone and enjoy America’s 250th celebrations taking place this year.

UPDATE TO ONLINE YEARBOOK AND OTHER DOCUMENTS

Our new publications provider has added a new feature I think you'll like.  Please visit our new publications bookcase here, or navigate by using the left menu, clicking on "Publications (Yearbook, etc.)".  Once you are there, you can click on the "VIEW" button or the picture of the publication, then use the 3-dot menu (. . .) for each publication to zoom in or perform some other functions.  I suggest you use "fullscreen" as this will give you the best view.  Hope this works better for all of you.  If so, please let me know by emailing me at info@aahs1970.com.
