Carl Jon Munson lives with his wife, Wendy Lynn, and is "Dad" to seven, all grown and spread across the U.S. Carl's loves include family, history, literature, music, nature, and travels with Wendy. Munson believes historical fiction must do more than replay famous events. It must find, vet and credibly gap important but somehow neglected history, then present it in an edifying and educational telling. C. S. Lewis summarized the benefits of such literature: "...I become a thousand men and yet remain myself. ...I see with a myriad of eyes, but it is still I who see. Here, as in worship, in love, in moral action, and in knowing, I transcend myself; and am never more myself than when I do."
