Created by the Matt Baker, the master of “good girl” art, Canteen Kate is a gorgeous girl who works at the army (although she never really did any work) and was usually seen scheming and disguising herself in order to spend more time with her boyfriend, Al, who was enlisted. Her stories were published during the Korean War and her adventures were lighthearted, funny and full of slapstick humor. Sexy and silly in equal measure Kate's stories are mix of romance, screwball fun and crime solving.

A Burning Bridge is a warm Goodbye is a collection of poems, thoughts and short stories amassed during Baker's turbulent time traveling between the U.S. and Canada. Finally landing in the states and going from couches to beds to week long drinking binges. Baker taps into the raw, harsh reality of truly seeing the elegance and splendor of Hell and "her". Often relating the two. His honesty is jarring and humorous. So, grab the cat, grab the wine and enjoy.
