My Dearest Darling: Letters Of Love In Wartime By Lisa Franco 
 
U.S. naval officer and submariner Donald Storey was not just fighting for 
his country in World War II—he was fighting to come home to his love, 
Margery.

When journalist Lisa Franco stumbled upon the couple's lost love letters 
in a Cape Cod antique shop, she had no idea of the story she was about 
to uncover.

In My Dearest Darling: Letters of Love in Wartime, Donald's and 
Margery's intimate and heartwarming correspondence chronicles their 
romance, personal sacrifices, hopes, and dreams, and gives a firsthand 
account of historical events as they unfolded overseas and at home. It 
also recounts Donald’s time training at the Naval Submarine Base New 
London, and offers a glimpse into serving on a sub during this time in 
history. 

Come meet the author and hear about her eleven-year journey to bring 
the true love story of this Connecticut couple back to life. Autographed 
books will be available to purchase at the Submarine Force Museum
