Hays published three nonfiction books: "G-2: Intelligence for Patton" (1971), "Country Editor" (1974) "State Science in Illinois" (1980) and "A Race at Bay" (1994) and edited another nonfiction book, "Early Stories From the Land."

Another one of the comfort reads. This one was pretty sad, with several deaths, but still a wonderful book.
Too much cooking and cleaning these days, I am forgetting entire books....
