PETER VINCENT PRY I was honored to have the Foreword for the Lone Star series written by Dr. Peter Vincent Pry a long-time advocate of protecting America's vulnerable power grid from the threats of foreign bad actors or a catastrophic solar flare. To know my novels were the topic of discussion on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC was humbling. Dr. Pry served as Chief of Staff of Congressional Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) Commission (2001-2017), and is currently the Executive Director of the Task Force on National and Homeland Security, a Congressional Advisory Board dedicated to achieving protection of the United States from electromagnetic pulse (EMP), Cyber Warfare, mass destruction terrorism and other threats to civilian critical infrastructures, on an accelerated basis.
