Norm's Latest Book

For Love of Country

Common Sense 2.0

In 1776, Thomas Paine anonymously produced Common Sense, a pamphlet advocating for colonial independence from Great Britain. If Paine’s revolutionary words had been revealed to the British authorities prior to their publication in the colonies, his writings most certainly would have resulted in his death. Paine insisted that British rule was directly responsible for nearly every problem in colonial society. Paine’s political views and his fellow revolutionaries’ actions led to the formation of a more perfect union. Today, that union is under attack.

What Reader's Say

“This is a wonderful little book. The author basically was updating Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" (1776), and he did an excellent job. In my opinion, this book should be required reading for every HS senior in America.”

A Gripping Novel From Norm

The Lucky Seven

During the early afternoon hours of April 24, 1944, Second Lieutenant James J. Goebel, Jr. finds himself floating alone toward the war-torn Belgian landscape below. What was his safe passage home, his B-24 Liberator, is now engulfed in flames and hurls to the ground only to report back with a distant thud upon the earth.

The Lucky Seven is a gripping true story of escape, evasion and résistance.

The Lucky Seven is an authentic, skillfully woven Bayeux tapestry of the aerial war of WWII as seen through the eyes of Lieutenant Goebel, his crew, and the people who interacted with them before the mission and in the aftermath of rescue and captivity.
The Lucky SevenTom Gauthier - Readers' Favorite Review
Norman W. Holden's non-fiction narrative has a sense of storytelling to it that perfectly captures the tension, courage, and camaraderie during wartime, and also sheds light on the often-overlooked acts of heroism by those who resisted Nazi occupation.

I could not put this book down, read it in 2 days. So many times Lt. Jim Goebel could have been captured or killed. Well written to keep the reader engaged.

Compelling story. Excellent book. Well-written. Even knowing there would be a "happy ending", I still couldn't put it down. It is a must read, especially for those with an interest in WWII history - I would highly recommend it.

I was moved by this book. It inspires you to do better. His love for his daughter and the struggles communicating that love is what moved me.
Do Better!Amazon Review
I purchased this book with the intention of it telling me how to navigate raising a 14 year old boy; instead it has caused me to look at myself, how my time is spent, how precious our days are, how a positive mind can help navigate the days better than a negative, importance of patience and being true to yourself!
Do Better!Amazon Review
Loved this book. As a man raising a young daughter I learned a lot from Norm’s wisdom.
