Kinny's Book
If you enjoyed The Kinyon Slides and you'd like to learn more about my grandfather Kinny, I encourage you to follow The Odyssey Of A Lady on tumblr.
Kinny served on board the USS Talbot DD114/APD-7 during World War II and wrote a short book about the ship and her exploits. It's a niche subject, but I wanted to honor his memory, and that of the ship and so many veterans, by making it available to anyone it would mean something to, so I'm self-publishing it. The tumblr also contains supplementary material about the ship, the war, the man, and the seven-decade journey of the book itself, from a typewriter on a warship to my laptop, and, finally, to print.
