"Fight of the Phoenix" is a historical personal account of
duties as an Advisor in the Delta of Vietnam in 1972. The author
counters claims of other Advisors and Academics and sets the record
straight on the vicious nature of the Communist insurgency that
killed their own people and the spectacular success of the Phoenix
Program throughout the country and especially in the Delta Region
MR-4 in targeting and neutralizing the enemy Viet Cong
insurgents.
American Heartland flows from the Midwestern childhood of the
author who learned the values of loyalty, bravery, and honesty with
love for God and country. LTC Peterson's poetry is a unique
portrayal of those values, as a substantive down to earth word
painting, but with a transcending perspective, yet substantive down
to earth painting with words everyone can unequalled by modern
poets. His down to earth prose combined with his acumen, wit, and
wisdom is comparable to Benjamin Franklin in Poor Richard's
Almanac. Like Longfellow he portrays a nostalgic past and like Poe,
Roy's mystic moments in Fall Fantasy are seductive. Two sections of
humor, however, set him apart as a poet for the ages.
Magnetism is the attraction force for men and women to begin and
consummate a relationship with Marriage. Guilt-free is the way
couples should view their relationship with or without having sex
before marriage. The author explores the entire premarital
relationship stages from dating to the honeymoon and provides a
practical approach to understanding the nature of modern
relationships.
Guardian Angel is a kaleidoscope of vivid poetic imagery and begins
with "To all the angels I have known and some I never knew a
thousand pardons for the stress I must have put you through."
Guardian Angels protect the good from bad consequences. LTC Roy
Peterson is the embodiment of the renaissance soldier, statesman,
and literary gentleman and harkens back to the likes of Poe and
Longfellow, but with the romantic urges of Hemingway and Lord
Byron.
American Heritage contains a comprehensive collection of the best
poetry previously published in three volumes, "Beyond Darkness and
Light," "Guardian Angel" and "American Heartland Poetry." Roy
Peterson is the quintessential poetry and prose author hearkening
back to the great poets in the Pantheon that is the American
Heritage of Poetry. Compare his works to Wordsworth, Longfellow,
Poe, and Frost for subject variety, style variations, and readable
yet complex thought integration making him the poet of and for
everyone.
