An email from W. Thomas Smith Jr. (dated March 17) to family, friends, and colleagues, 

Rita Cosby, a New York Times bestselling author and Emmy® award-winning journalist, has written a new book, Quiet Hero: Secrets from My Father’s Past, a truly amazing tale of her father, his service in the Polish Resistance during WWII, his survival and escape from a Nazi POW camp, Rita’s uncovering the hidden story of her hero-father, and the two of them returning to his native Poland.

I’ve had the opportunity to read the manuscript (as one of Rita’s “military experts”), and I am convinced it will quickly appear on the New York Times bestseller list as did her first book.

From the standpoint of military history, this is a tale of the greatness of Poland that has never been told.

I don’t say this because Rita is my friend (though that does make it easier).

I say this because I know you will not be able to read this book without being emotionally moved throughout, yet cheering at the end, and walking away from it – you will be able to read it in a night — a more soulfully enriched human being, grateful for what other human beings do for us.

QUIET HERO will be released May 18, but I’m hoping you will pre-order a copy now.

Let me add, a portion of all proceeds go to help wounded warriors.

Thanks and best,
WTS
