A terrified beggar confronts bow-tied business consultant, Ryan Bach, in festive Sundance Square, Fort Worth, Texas. The panicked panhandler thrusts a filthy bag into Bach's cuff-linked arms, and flees. Research reveals the sack holds a rare Latin Vulgate inscribed by Juan Pizarro's priest during the sixteenth century Spanish conquest of the Incas. The Vulgate hints of linkage with an improbable myth of Incan gold, buried along the Brazos River in Texas, at a location identified by a fabled rawhide map. Bookish Bach's unlikely friend-good-ol'-boy homicide detective, J.W. Hood-discovers the Michoac n Drug Cartel tortured and murdered the frightened beggar, ostensibly for his ancient Vulgate, and for reasons beyond the value of mere treasure. Bach becomes the target of cartel threats of torture, kidnapping attempts, and extortion to possess the old Bible. Heather Spenser, Bach's brilliant, skilled, and alluring executive assistant joins Detective Hood to protect her boss, expose the myth, and rid themselves of constant intimidation. They collide with cartel goons on competing treasure quests, clambering through a perilous labyrinth of clues emanating from Mexico, South America, and Texas. All are flabbergasted with where the odyssey ends, and what is discovered.
My Story tells the tale of one man's coming to adulthood in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Because of his international focus, the Author had said little about a subject that might interest a reader familiar with his existing body of work, that is, himself. So, he has turned a penetrating gaze from his customary subjects--people and places in the Middle East and South Asia--to a subject that provides context for his earlier books. From family histories of eighteenth-century Cevio in the Swiss Alps and Marseille in Provence; from childhood, youth, adolescence, and early adulthood in the United States; to the Navy and the Vietnam War; from ""First Footsteps in the Middle East"" to ""Timeline,"" ""Red America,"" and ""Iran Odyssey,"" these chapters play out against the backdrop of the family history now provided. As such, this work represents the capstone to a full career.

An independent's assessment of the issues facing voters in 2020, with the need for Democrats to find the right messenger and message to retain the House of Representatives, recapture the White House, and regain the Senate. Presented in a clear, simple form, it gives voters, who do not have the time to follow the election process on a day-to-day basis, the opportunity to become informed.
Middle East Tapestry represents the final installment of my thirty-plus years living and working in the Arab and Muslim worlds. The previous works, Masr and At the Margins, covered outlying areas of the region, including Egypt, South Asia, and West Africa. This book marks a return to the central lands of Islam in the Arabian Peninsula, including Saudi Arabia and Yemen, with lengthy excursions into lands to the north, chiefly Jordan and the West Bank. The title, Middle East Tapestry, was chosen after careful consideration of several alternatives. The term ""Middle East"" simply seemed the best descriptor of the area inhabited by the world's nearly four hundred million Arab Muslims and makes up in familiarity what it may lack in definitional precision and nuance. The word ""tapestry""--technically, an elaborate piece of textile work with pictures woven into the warp and weft--was also carefully chosen. It more generally describes ""an intricate combination of things or sequence of events, not necessarily related,"" that seemed to answer to the complexity of the area I am describing: ""a tapestry of cultures, races, and customs."" Indeed, there is hardly a thing in the history of the area that is not intricate or complex.

Wroxeter: Ashes under Uricon offers a perspective on how people over time have viewed the abandoned Roman city of Wroxeter in Shropshire. It responds to three main artistic outputs relating to the site: poetry, images and texts. The poets include Wilfred Owen, A.E. Housman and Mary Webb. The writers cover a range of interests relating to the site but include Darwin, Dickens, Rosemary Sutcliff and John Buchan. The artists are perhaps less well-known but include watercolours by Thomas Girtin, archaeological reconstructions by Alan Sorrell and Amedée Forrestier, and paintings by Wroxeter’s own resident artist, Thomas Prytherch. Photographs are represented by the work of Francis Bedford and others more closely associated with aerial archaeology such as J.K. St Joseph and Arnold Baker. While the famous names have their value, The book also investigates what locals and visitors thought of the site over time – how they perceived it and have responded to it. It reflects in particular upon how the public and locals responded to the archaeological discoveries on the site and perceived the narratives that were created by the archaeologists working on it. It contends that archaeologists are just as much story-tellers as the writers, poets or artists, although their work is more filtered or controlled, and through these narratives, they inspire others. A further strand to the book is to explore the increasing focus over the past century on the democratisation of access to and understanding of the site, alongside increasing state intervention in its running. This too has had its impact on who visits and what is understood about the site. A short concluding section offers a vision of how the site might develop in the near-future, and how its cultural side might flourish once again.

In the mid 1990s, the site of the Roman city of Viroconium Cornoviorum at Wroxeter, Shropshire, was subjected to one of the most intensive campaigns of geophysical survey ever carried out on a Roman town. The result was a complete plan of the city using magnetometry but also significant deployment of other technologies including resistance, GPR and more experimental technologies. Since that time, geophysical survey has continued intermittently, using the site as a geophysical laboratory. This volume reports on the archaeological interpretation of this work, marrying the extensive and nuanced geophysical data with a detailed analysis of the existing aerial photographic record created by Arnold Baker during the 1950s to 1980s. The resulting work is the first insula by insula description of all the visible buildings in the town, the first time that this has been attempted for a Romano-British town, and one of the few attempted anywhere in the Empire. The analysis has enabled a complete reinterpretation of the historical development of the town that links it to its surrounding hinterland and to wider concerns about Roman Urban development. The volume also contains detail of small-scale excavations that have been carried out since 1999 on the site, many in previously unexplored areas, and completes the publication of all outstanding archaeological work on the monument
