From Shadows to Sunlight
A Thrilling and Romantic World War II Novel Inspired by the Remarkable Life of Robert Amidon
"You have your education; now let’s see what you can do with it."
Disowned by one of America’s wealthiest families, Robert Amidon left home with nothing but a suit, a dollar, and an iron will. From surviving the Great Depression to finding purpose aboard the renowned USS New Orleans, Robert’s journey was anything but ordinary.
When he married Tony, a fiery redhead from Texas, paradise seemed within reach as the couple prepared to start anew in Honolulu. But it was November 1941, and their world—along with the rest of humanity—was on the brink of seismic change.
This extraordinary tale is more than fiction; it’s rooted in the vivid, unvarnished autobiography of Robert “Bob” Amidon, as written in 1988. Discovered untouched in a safe deposit box decades later, his life’s account unfolds without revision, omission, or embellishment.
“From Shadows to Sunlight” brings to life the triumphs and trials of an ordinary man navigating an extraordinary era. Told with raw honesty, it captures the beautiful, the heartbreaking, and the indelible moments that defined a generation.
