A story of adventure, excitement, and love. Anyone who knows of the
connection held by "buddies," "brothers in arms," and those in
love, will quickly grasp the concept and depth of Chief Salt. Early
Reviews of Chief Salt: "May I say, I felt as though I was part of
the plot, as so much of the writing parallels my own experience. I,
too, knew characters like those described. Great fun The way the
story is structured allows one to venture in and out. It's a nice
linked collection of short stories in a way which allows one to do
just that. Well done (or "BZ" as we used to say)." - William
Putnam, Rear Admiral, USN (Ret), former USS Abraham Lincoln Battle
Group Commander*. "Serving one's country has a way of honing the
virtuous traits in a man's character and developing additional ones
along the way. In his book, Chief Salt, James Garrett shows this to
be the case. While actual men and women of the caliber described in
this novel are not commonplace, I feel fortunate to have known
several in my life. They are all of the Chief Salt variety." -
Anthony G. Davis, Captain, Pilot, USAFR (1985-1993)*. "Chief Salt
is a literary and poetic masterpiece. With both poetry and prose,
James Garrett artfully tells an unflinching tale about hard lessons
in duty, courage, love, and loss. With humor, wit, and incredible
intensity, Garrett's characters come to life. Chief Salt is an
outstanding novel " - Micah Larripa, Captain, USMC, Iraq Combat
Veteran*. "The writing from each character's point of view is
incredibly human. I know who they are, and where they come from. I
loved how James Garrett brought their past into the present. He
presented them with honest traits, both good and not so good. The
poetry makes the characters come alive. The pause brought on a
moment to reflect. I akin it to the music or soundtrack in a movie
during a background scene. As an Army wife, though my husband is
not in the Special Forces, I read this with a compassion
