Finding My Father's War
This is the remarkable story of my father, Herbert Henry Miller, who was drafted into the army in August 1942. So begins this book about an ordinary man thrust into extraordinary circumstances during World War II. The writer is Herbert Millers son, Robert, who was amazed to discover his fathers Red Cross war diary at the back of a drawer in the weeks following his 1994 death. The diary was crammed full of his dreams for survival and of the death and destruction he had witnessed as a soldier and a POW. Finding his fathers journal became the catalyst for Robert Miller to learn more about his father and his fathers war. He spent hours interviewing his mother, the only person who knew of her husbands nightmares and understood that he suffered from life-long posttraumatic stress disorder. Robert also traveled throughout Europe and America interviewing World War II survivors and their families and digging into archives.
Hidden Hell
Robert Miller's father, World War II veteran Herbert Henry Miller, died in 1994. A month later, Robert and his mother discovered the Red Cross diary he had kept while a prisoner of war in Nazi Germany. It became the catalyst for Robert's quest to learn more about his father's war. The result of that quest is this remarkable book, a story of terror, horrific despair, and Nazi depravity. But it is also a tale of survival against astonishing odds, of the deep bonds that develop between men at a time of war, and of choosing to leave hate behind. Captured by the Germans at Mortain, France, on August 6, Miller endured a punishing fifty-four-day march to Moosburg, Germany, where he survived for seven months in Stalag VIIA, the largest POW camp in Nazi Germany. During his stay at Stalag VIIA, Miller became good friends with a Nazi guard named Heinz, who eventually disappeared from the camp.

Graham Greene
English novelist, short-story writer, playwright and journalist, Graham Greene was one of the most widely read novelist of the 20th-century, a superb storyteller.

Although Greene was nominated several times as a candidate for the Nobel Prize for Literature, he never received the award. Graham Greene is a descriptive catalog of first editions of works by Greene, which are currently held in the collection of the University of Louisville. Arranged chronologically by title, Robert H. Miller, also includes letters, radio scripts, pamphlets, and subsequent editions of importance and scarcity.
