In a world filled with its share of divisiveness and discord, this engaging "power read" by Mike Martin reminds readers that unity is an absolute essential in both being a team player, and in leading a team to victory and sustainable success. Unity is the element that enables teams in every area of business, athletics and more, to achieve more and exceed the results mere talent could ever produce. Turning Silver Into Gold will provide athletes, coaches, owners, CEO's and other high level leaders useful information on what Team Unity is, how it is achieved and then protected. Turning Silver Into Gold is endorsed by leaders at all levels in business and athletics. It provides practical concepts and strategies for developing high performing teams rooted in unity and gives a solid footprint for developing team unity and capitalizing on the success it brings teams. Turning Silver Into Gold challenges and equips both the team member and leader to contribute to a team's unity by living daily with a selfless attitude, servant leadership, sacrifice and a commitment to character. Mike and his wife Debby have helped individuals and teams grow in these areas and in the unity of the teams they are a part of and have seen the power of sustained replication in the lives of those they have worked with and impacted.

In the late 1980s, the 'army crisis' was dominating headlines in Ireland. Complaints of poor pay, low morale and unsatisfactory conditions for those serving in the Defence Forces were growing louder against the background of a government accused of being indifferent and an army hierarchy accused of being incapable. From amidst the turmoil, a group of women stepped up to pursue the rights of their men. Political crisis and a general election followed, but a commission established to examine the Defence Forces ignored the call for soldiers to acquire their own representative body. This book reveals for the first time, the deep-seated philosophies, tensions and reservations between Ireland's military and its government from the foundation of the State to the present day. It explores in detail the events that led to the successful pursuit of the democratic right of association for members of the armed forces in Ireland. It articulates the concept of the citizen in uniform and the special relationship between members of the armed forces and society. This is the story of the breaking of ranks.
Within hours of the sinking of RMS Lusitania by a German submarine off the Cork coast in May 1915, a narrative was created which over time became the accepted truth of the incident. Many people today still believe the sinking of the Lusitania was a savage attack on an innocent vessel that brought America into the war. In this book, author and historian Michael Martin raises a series of disturbing questions that challenge this longheld perspective. Examining a raft of old and new evidence suggesting a more sinister function of RMS Lusitania, this book explores the widespread use of civilian vessels within the war effort; it shines a light on the operational response of the Royal Navy in the immediate aftermath of the incident; and it looks at the nature of the response of the United States at this crucial juncture. And, above all, this book questions the narrative that has grown up around one of the most pivotal junctures in the war to end all wars.
The dominant star shaped fortress on Spike Island testifies to it's strategic importance in the once heavily fortified bastion of British military might that was Cork Harbour. Beneath and around this edifice however lies the story of an island steeped in extensive Irish heritage that stretches further back into the mists of Irelands past beyond the arrival of the Normans and on through to the darkest period of Irish history. From an island of ecclesiastical retreat and contemplation to a dark and godforsaken destination of victims of Ireland's Great Famine, Spike Island has been a part of two contrasting periods in Irish history. The era of saints and scholars during which Spike was described as a Holy Island is set against a later backdrop of famine, disease and death and the dark judicial practice that saw men and boys transported from it to the penal colonies of distant Australia.This book explores the island through these two very different environments from the founding of the monastery there by Saint Carthage to the use of the island as a place of detention, punishment and undignified death. From saints to starvation, 'Spike Island' embodies a part of the brightest a darkest legacy of Ireland's history.

In this time of vicious onslaught against our heritage, here is a message much needed: We are right to celebrate the memory of such Southern people.
