    This book is a cinematic narrative nonfiction military biography of a World War II soldier. Built from military records, unit histories, photographs, family history, and historical research. *** In 1944, James W. Foster left the mountains of East Tennessee and entered a war unlike anything he had ever known. Serving as a half-track driver with Company C, 48th Armored Infantry Battalion, 7th Armored Division - the "Lucky Seventh" - James crossed into Europe and found himself in the middle of some of the fiercest fighting of World War II. From the battlefields of Northern France to the brutal fighting in Holland, the days grew colder, the fighting grew harder, and the men around him became more than soldiers. They became brothers. Then came December. As the German army launched its desperate offensive through the Ardennes, the 7th Armored Division was thrown into the fight. James and the men of Company C were sent toward Belgium, where snow-covered forests, artillery, armor, and infantry would collide in a battle for survival. For James, one day would change everything. The Last Track Out tells the true story of an ordinary American soldier caught in an extraordinary war - the places he went, the men he fought beside, and the experiences that followed him long after the guns fell silent. This is not the story of a famous general or a celebrated hero. It is the story of one soldier. James W. Foster. And this is how his war began.

    In what could probably be the most ironical 'irony of silence', the mighty Western world, in the face of the Quranic assault against its Christian faith in the mosques, madrasas and mohallahs that too on its own soil, had come to adopt the mute mode! Not only that, the redoubtable Pope of the day, in the Supreme seat of the Catholic power, whose predecessors ushered in the crusades against Mohammedans to recover their Holy Lands in Middle East, remains a mute spectator even as Islamist immigrants have been aggressively asserting their faith all over Europe these days. Just for the uninitiated, here are a few samples of the Quranic assaults against the Christians, and Jews as well, from Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall's The Meaning of the Glorious Quran.

    455 A.D. The eternal city of Rome burns. In the chaos, one family of Romans flees the city and heads East to possible salvation. Further north, two soldiers named Titus and Cato, bound to the family by blood and vow, abandon their military oaths in pursuit. Attila the Hun is dead yet his presence remains, evident in the fury of the Hunnic armies rampaging about. All around Europe the Western Roman Empire is falling as barbarian tribes run amok, slaughtering and raiding at will. Only one great city remains, only one seems safe behind its high walls: Constantinople. The road there, however, is treacherous and soaked in blood. The odds are against them yet Romans are nothing if determined. They did not rule the world by being weak, after all. One foot ahead, sword in hand, shield over arm, they go, they see, they conquer. #360 in Historical Fiction (April 18, 2016) *****Irregular Updates*****

    I originally published this novel in 1990 (before Wattpad existed), and the sequel-The Rood and the Torc: The Song of Kristinge, Son of Finn-in 2014. I'm thinking about republishing The Finnsburg Encounter. I've made part I available on Wattpad; comment and let me know when you're ready for part II. The tale here set forth of Finn and Hildeburh grew out of a small portion of the Old English heroic poem Beowulf. After Beowulf's victory over the monster Grendel, the hero and his brave companions gather together in Heorot, the famous hall of Danish king Hrothgar, to celebrate. In that portion of the poem, often called "The Finnsburg Episode of Beowulf" (lines 1064-1124), Hrothgar's poet sings a song about the famous battle of Finn and Hnaef. The tale is retold in brief by the Beowulf poet-a story within a story, as it were. At the time that Beowulf was composed, that tale of Finn and Hildeburh was probably well-known, and so the Beowulf poet needed only to give a brief summary of the events. Now, however, many centuries later, the full story of these events is long lost. All we know of the tragic tale of Finn is what we read in that small episode of Beowulf, and in a cryptic fragment of another poem which was discovered, transcribed by the scholar George Hickes, and then lost, but which seems to relate closely to the events told by the Beowulf poet. Here then is given, as recreated in the imagination of the author, a fuller tale of Finn and Hildeburh, and of the events leading up to the fight at Finnsburg. No knowledge of Beowulf is necessary, but those who are familiar with that great poem may enjoy these speculations. In order to give a more realistic, historical flavor to the tale, I have placed the events during a particular period of history, namely the early seventh century.
