In addition to his book of unique poetry, he has also penned two novels and a book of short stories having Christmas as their theme. Ed's first novel, "Morgan's Mission" is based largely upon facts from early Califonia history. Ed did much research on-site before creating this fictionalized account of a "Yankee" in early California. His second novel also has some historical basis. It relates the many encounters of a young widow, her children, and of her attraction to a suave gentleman that everyone else calls a "scoundrel". E'd book of Christmas stories is geared to adults. There are no obsenities, but children will not enjoy the plots or characters. The stories vary in their telling of the happening in the life of many people, some joyful, some sad, some even emotionally unsettling.
