This book is dedicated to my Mother Mae Frances Bliss Hill and my Grandmother before her, Augusta Bliss. They have both been lamps unto my feet over the course of my life. They embodied the GRACE, GUTS ad GLORY required of them as both daughters and mothers. These "Women of God" have stood in the gaps all around me year after year, decade after decade. Their "walk" and example has been sheet music for my journey through every phase of my life. These women are my Angels and heroines. They are my Spiritual role models and songstresses for life. May God bless you both, in heaven. I also dedicate this book to my Sister Denise: A "songbird" in my life and a saving grace in my battle with cancer. A caring and loving soul she has been to her nine (9) children, her husband and me. May God bless you over and over as he leads you into the future he has created for you. I dedicate this book to my wife Brenda, to Garon, Marq, Devin and Derek, to Edenn and Nicole and each of their wives, husbands, daughters and sons. I love you all very deeply and I thank you for ..."MY STORIES and PSALMS"....the songs that you have placed in my heart. Finally, to my former co-workers, friends, extended family and fellow believers toward a higher purpose. Thank you for sharing your life, time, energy, thoughts and prayers with me.

Guts and Glory: The Making of the American Military Image in Film is the definitive study of the symbiotic relationship between the film industry and the United States armed services. Since the first edition was published nearly two decades ago, the nation has experienced several wars, both on the battlefield and in movie theatres and living rooms at home. Now, author Lawrence Suid has extensively revised and expanded his classic history of the mutual exploitation of the film industry and the military, exploring how Hollywood has reflected and effected changes in America's image of its armed services. He offers in-depth looks at such classic films as Wings, Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo, The Longest Day, Patton, Top Gun, An Officer and a Gentleman, and Saving Private Ryan, as well as the controversial war movies The Green Berets, M*A*S*H, the Deer Hunter, Apocalypse Now, Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, and Born on the Fourth of July.

“Psalms of Bliss” is a journey, a walk through the lives of the author’s ancestors before him. The Author, Edwin A. Hill believes that by looking back, there is often revelation for life today. He states that “....the lives and life experiences of our ancestors have shaped much of who we are and who we can be, if we choose to understand the roads they have trodden”. He is saddened for our youth today, who have little knowledge of the beliefs held by their ancestors as role models. The book draws us to the author’s ancestors that trace back for over 100 years. Love from God offers access to a life in heaven as key to the “Bliss”, the joy shared generation to generation. Psalms of Bliss affirms the blessings waiting for all of our lives as we receive God’s gift of new life in our hearts. “New life” that many of our ancestors embraced. In stories, psalms and poems, he invites us into his heart to choose to join him in praises to God. Hill’s chapters and psalms are full of compassion, joy, faith, fears and even “Bliss” resulting from God’s blessings upon this family. Psalms of Bliss encourages us to rejoice with family and others from gracious hearts standing strong in the favor of God.
