Overview

Sacred Blood by Al Lohn gives us a glimpse into the humanity of war. As young warriors drench the soil with their own blood, they question why. Political rationalizations and philosophy does not matter to the soldiers trying to just live through one more day. Sacred Blood covers the fear, anxiety, love, hate despair and hope that soldiers share on both sides of the battle lines from the cold, icy fields of Valley Forge to the burning desert of Iraq.

About the Author

Author Al Lohn was born in 1934 on the outskirts of Cologne Germany and educated in the art of apparel manufacturing. He worked until 1956 in his father's business. In November 1956, he immigrated to the USA with his parents and younger brother. Drafted thirteen months later, he served in the US Army for two years, two years in the Army Reserve, and two years on stand- by. While stationed in Germany he met his wife. After his discharge from the Army, he became the manager of Brooks-Van Horn's manufacturing department in Philadelphia, a Theatrical costume company serving the entertainment industry. During his ten year-tenure, he worked on many challenging projects such as 'Holiday on Ice', 'Hello Dolly', the Philadelphia Mummers, historical reproductions for the Marine Corps, the Smithsonian Institute and wax museums. During his fifty-year career, he served as Corporate Senior Vice President for Liz Claiborne Inc and retired as Corporate Vice President from the Spiegel Group in 1998. His extensive travel during his 50-year career took him around the world to all five continents. His travels gained him a deep understanding of the world's cultures as well as their trials and tribulations. This, combined with his experience growing up in a war-torn country during World War II, and his military service, compelled him to turn to writing after his retirement. He resides in New Jersey with his wife of fifty-seven years were they enjoy their children and three grandchildren. Now he writes and is the author of eight published books.
