Baker Affair, The
Lou Barber
The Baker Affair is a fictional story based on historical fact about the Baker family of Bernardston, Massachusetts, and the exploits of the Baker brothers, Les and Paul, in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. More than just a war epic, however, this is also a romance about New England, the Baker brothers, and the women they love.
Review: "Lou Barber's The Baker Affair is an epic account of American Heroes from a small town. It is a story of American initiative and courage during a period of three wars-WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. This tale of adventure captures the can-do American drive and spirit during the enormity of wars on foreign soil. It is about Americans, their heart and soul as they dared to challenge a dangerous world."
-Charles A. Horner, General, USAF (retired)
Co-author with Tom Clancy, Every Man A Tiger
