Notă biografică

In the late 1980s, Ronald Argo published one of the more important novels on Vietnam, Year of the Monkey, a story painting a comprehensive and human canvas of the war. Before and after he served as a military correspondent in LBJ's war, he has worked as a psych-ward aide, a prize-winning photographer, a Florida Keys boat captain, an award-winning investigative newspaper reporter, and he restores old houses. Those among other constructive and nefarious occupations. Argo is the author of The Courage to Kill and The Sum of His Worth, both historical thriller novels, and both recipients of awards for thriller and literary fiction. He earned three university degrees including a bachelor's in Journalism, the Masters in English Lit and the MFA. Argo lives with his wife Mary and cow dog Prince in a community of San Diego where, like Voltaire, he tends his garden. Please visit Argo's website at www.ronargo.com.
