"The hero, Michael O'Connor, was my Father. I was born 12 years after the 1936 flood in New Hampshire. I was aware of his amazing story. I also knew about this comic book that featured his story from my Mother, but I had never seen it. You can imagine how surprised I was to find it on your website. Thank you so much." |
