Atlanta Authors, in collaboration with the City of Roswell and Bookmiser Book Stores, is proud to present a special event to honor our community's veterans. Join us as we pay tribute to these brave individuals by welcoming Rona Simmons, renowned author of The Other Veterans of World War II and A Gathering of Men, as she shares captivating stories of soldiers both on the battlefield and behind the scenes.

Rona Simmons, daughter of a WWII fighter pilot and wife of a US Navy pilot, has dedicated her work to honoring veterans and preserving their histories. Through her books, Simmons gives voice to the commanding officers, airmen, and ground crews who served during the war. Her stories, articles, and interviews have been featured in esteemed literary journals and respected print and online magazines.

Simmons's latest work, A Gathering of Men, takes place during the significant era of the Second World War. Based on a true story, the book follows a group of young men who aspired to follow in Charles Lindbergh's footsteps and fulfill their dreams of flying. However, their journey takes an unexpected turn as they confront the challenges of battling the German Luftwaffe. A Gathering of Men sheds light on a lesser-known aspect of the war, highlighting the experiences of noncombat soldiers and the sacrifices they made.

Through extensive research, Simmons brings to life the immense scale of the global operation, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of the war. The book showcases the veterans' unwavering faith, sacrifices, and even their sense of humor. It serves as a reminder of the extraordinary contributions made by these men and women, who played a vital role in shaping the outcome of World War II.
