Fiction. A collection of newspaper columns written over a four-year span, MOUSTACHE PETE IS DEAD is an insightfully keen look into the world of the Italian immigrant. Through Pete's words, we come to understand the difficulties many immigrants and their progeny have often had in order to negotiate the dominant culture's misunderstanding of the immigrant's culture of origin. MOUSTACHE PETE IS DEAD calls for the birth of a smooth partnership between these two different cultures.
From Texas to Rome

From Texas to Rome

Fred L. Walker

Major General Fred Walker assumed command of the Texas National Guard’s 36th Infantry Division in September 1941. He led it for the next 34 months through training, overseas deployment, and World War II’s horrific Italian campaign. Throughout, Walker kept a daily journal in which he recorded his experiences on and off the battlefield. The diary was originally published in a limited run in 1969 and has been out of print for decades. Thanks to the efforts of the Texas Military Forces Museum (the official museum of the Texas National Guard), Walker’s remarkable and very rare memoir is available once more in From Texas to Rome: Fighting World War II and the Italian Campaign with the 36th Infantry Division.General Walker’s wartime journal provides a refreshingly candid version of some of World War II’s most important battles, as well as a frank appraisal of key figures in the Allied high command and their military operations. Walker’s 36th Infantry Division participated in the battle to secure the Salerno beachhead and, amid horrible weather conditions, waged a bloody struggle up the Italian boot against determined German troops dug into mountain strongholds. The battles of San Pietro and Monte Cassino, the controversial attempt to cross the Rapido River, and the break out from Anzio come to life as Walker relates the difficulties he faced combating not only the Germans, but Lieutenant General Mark Clark and the Allied high command.This unique and thoroughly gripping account puts readers at General Walker’s side as he argues against the disastrous Rapido operation, worries about his men fighting in Italy’s bitter conditions, and fights to overcome his superior’s doubts to plan and execute the daring attack on Monte Artemisio, which broke the Anzio stalemate and landed the Allies in Rome four days later.This special 75th Anniversary of World War II reprint includes a guest Preface by award-winning author Jeffrey Wm. Hunt, Director of the Texas Military Forces Museum. From Texas to Rome is essential reading for anyone interested in the realities of the U.S. Army high command during World War II, and the truth about what happened at Salerno, the Rapido, and Anzio.

You are the most important person in your life. To Tell The Truth... reveals how you can tap into the vast store of life knowledge at your fingertips simply by focusing on yourself and humanity rather than on the groups to which you belong. It's just a matter of unlocking your mind to what's already there and believing what you already know. Think creatively. Look in the spaces that we see but usually ignore. You're smarter than you think. Take advantage of it. Believe in yourself and become who you really are. The author addresses much of the world's "common knowledge" ...seldom put in perspective...(and) pushes readers to reinvestigate, redefine, and...question all of this knowledge they have taken as fact. (The) language is wholly immersing, thought-provoking and insightful. The narration has a consistent flow and moves from one topic to the next in a manner that is relational and builds off previous ideas. This type of narration demands deeper thought and reflection on part of the reader. The author speaks directly to the reader, using the pronouns "you" and "your"... (He) creates a tone...that is intimate, thoughtful, and demanding of personal reflection/deep thought. This...is a catalyst for reader involvement and direct interaction between the reader and the text, making this...a great resource for curious readers." Further, the author does a fantastic job of breaking down intricate concepts and ideas...so that readers readily understand them before (he) moves on to more in-depth discussion of the concept or idea. (He) is thorough yet concise in his explanations, ensuring the reader's comprehension of the topic before moving forward. By publisher's editor Fred is a retired geologist, widower, entrepreneur, photographer, erstwhile rally champion, and music enthusiast living in the outback near Tucson. While founding two successful consultancies he picked up an MBA that kindled an interest in ethics which, along with the true enlightenment of a Peak Experience in 1993, led to the writing of this book. He currently nurses' interests in philosophy and metaphysics and, against all odds, is striving to bring science and religion together. He blogs irregularly on the website ExtremeEthics.org on these and other current subjects]

A determined young boy who faces unfriendly attacks as he seek to put his best foot forward. Sadly, he's bullied because he's unique. He's criticized just for trying. He's envied for having confidence and believing in himself. Bullying is cruel. It's a heartless act that makes a weak person feel strong or better about himself by trying to put down or intimidate someone else. Like a dream come true, in the story "Loose Beat" being bullied gave Jo Joe the coolness, the enthusiasm he needed to dig deep and emerge as the winner he knew he could become.

Kimmel, Short, and Pearl Harbor

In late 1995 amidst heated debate over the blame placed on Rear Adm. Husband E. Kimmel and Maj. Gen. Walter C. Short for the devastation of the attack on Pearl Harbor and their subsequent demotions, the department of defense ordered its own investigation into the matter. This investigation was the only official inquiry made into the appropriateness of posthumously promoting Kimmel and Short to the ranks they held prior to the attack. As the first investigation to be conducted outside the Army and Navy establishments, it took a fresh look at the controversy.This book reproduces the complete report issued by the investigators with added commentary and an explanation of what it all means by coauthors Fred Borch and Daniel Martinez. Borch was the Army's representative on the team conducting the investigation, and his firsthand knowledge contributes significantly to the analysis presented. Martinez, an acknowledged expert on the attack, gives an important historical perspective to the study. A foreword by Donald Goldstein, part of Gordon Prange's research-writing team for many years, gives further insights in what happened and why on that fateful December day.

Funk weaves a terrifying story of crime and punishment, inspired by an actual case from decades ago.

Physics and Chemistry of Comets

As this excellent book demonstrates, the study of comets has now reached the fas­ cinating stage where we understand comets in general simple tenns while, at the same time, we are uncertain about practically all the details of cometary nature, structure, processes, and origin. In every aspect, even including dynamics, a choice among several or many competing theories is made impossible simply by the lack of detailed knowledge. The space missions, snapshot studies of two comets, partic­ ularly the one that immortalizes the name of Sir Edmund Halley, have produced a huge mass of valuable new infonnation and a number of surprises. Nonetheless, we face the tantalizing realization that we have obtained only a fleeting glance at two of perhaps a hundred billion (lOll) or more comets with possibly differing natures, origins, and physical histories. To my personal satisfaction, comets seem to have discrete nuclei made up of dirty snowballs, as I concluded four decades ago, but perhaps they are more like frozen rubbish piles.
