LARRY COLTON at Trinity Lutheran Church

10/13/2010 7:00 pm
Still remembered hereabouts from his days as a Philadelphia Phillies pitcher, Oregon writer Larry Colton is here with No Ordinary Joes: The Extraordinary True Story of Four Submariners in War and Love and Life (Crown), a vivid recounting of four men who survived a Japanese attack on their submarine, only to be captured and imprisoned as POWs. Larry Colton does a remarkable job of telling the stories of these men, their ordeals, their times—from imprisonment and isolation during the war, to their difficult homecoming (people had given them up for dead), and life as they would live it over these ensuing decades. From different parts of the country—New York, Dallas, Medford, and Yakima—their separate origins were soon linked by fate—and destiny. Free admission. Trinity Lutheran Church is at 1200 Tenth Avenue E. (at Highland, about 15 blocks north of Elliott Bay on Capitol Hill). For more information, please call Elliott Bay at (206) 624-6600.
