"Tex Atkinson writes from the heart and his story is an old-fashioned page turner. From the first words to the last photograph, it's like being enveloped in a wonderful spell. From The Cockpit is a must read - highly recommended!"

- Joe Weber,

Best Selling Author

“Tex Atkinson has painted a vivid picture of those of us who grew up in the Depression and WWII days and reached our manhood during the Korean War. He has recreated the times and forces that drove us to take up the career patterns that shaped our lives. Sometimes frightening, sometimes frustrating, but always exhilarating. I was truly impressed.”

- Ken Wallace, Captain, USN (Retired)

“Some can fly, some can write, but few can do both well. Tex Atkinson is the exception. His tales ring true. They let us into his cockpit and into his heart.”

- ”Charlie” Brown,
Columnist, Bourbon County Citizen, Paris, KY

“Tex Atkinson’s sensitive and personal descriptions of life, from Amos and Andy radio days to the shocking reality of a real but ‘Forgotten War,’ held me captive from the first word to the last.”

- Ruth White, Author
