Alan Quale is a retired journalist, having worked as a newspaper reporter, copy editor, page designer and news editor, mostly in the San Francisco Bay Area. In 2010 he published his first novel titled My Dakota, the story of his early life on the Great Plains. He recently published his second novel titled Replacements, which is based on his experiences as a supply sergeant for an infantry company in which more than 83 percent of the men were either killed or wounded during the Vietnam War. Born in Montana, Quale holds a degree in journalism from the University of North Dakota. When he’s not writing, he enjoys hiking in the Sierra Nevada mountains where he and his wife have a cabin. Alan Quale will give his book Replacements free to participants.
