"It's Lonely Here in Hell" is a collection of love letters written by James Dennis Piper, a soldier that was killed in action in Vietnam Aprill 11, 1967, to his young bride Michelle Piper. Each handwritten letter from Jim to Michelle has been carefully transcribed and historical documentation has been added. Cross referencing and correlating data from sources such as declassified CIA documents, Pentagon Papers and unrestricted use of Weider History Group archives has created a historically correct and profound journey through eight months of the Vietnam War.
Both Jim's younger brother Dennis and his widow Michelle (Micki) were at the event talking with people and listening to other's stories of loss and hope during that difficult time in our nations history.
The event was well attended and Sue and Randy Bresee, owners of Snaps and history buffs, clearly enjoyed hosting the event. They mingled, served, discussed and promoted, all while running a business.
