I am a journalist and author who likes writing about overlooked things; forgotten people, marginalized subjects, and, particularly, those bizarre moments in history that somehow got overshadowed by better-known events a couple of days before. I have written two novels: Germania, about the three-week reich of Hitler's unlucky successor, Karl Doenitz, and Friend of the Devil, about blues, reefer, God and the Devil, Bonnie and Clyde, Mexican border radio, and goat testicles. I've also written for magazines about such diverse subjects as comic books, roller derby, French circus acrobats in Dallas, counterinsurgency in Afghanistan, the jealousy-ridden world of B-17 bomber owners, and undersea mine warfare. I also wrote the definitive article about the search for the Great Dallas Novel. Visit my blog, Brendan McNally, Nazis and Dinosaurs.

My novel Germania is now available as a Kindle ebook here.
