Long-time Magnolia resident John Clauson grew up believing he was the son of an IBM salesman. In his soon-to be-released new book, he tells the story of how, in his mid-30’s, he finally learned the truth from his father: that for over forty years, being an IBM salesman was a cover. Wallace Clauson’s real job was with a clandestine branch of IBM that took orders from the Department of Defense, and was charged with ensuring America’s arsenal of nuclear weapons his their targets. When John retired, he decided to research and tell his father’s story, and the result is a gripping story. Come to Magnolia’s Bookstore to met the author and hear more about the story.
