For fans, sports are like an obsession. Where does the obsession come from? Heck, a number of things come to mind but the one aspect of sports that has pulled fanatics in is without a doubt: RIVALRIES In this instance, not team rivalries but the subject of individual rivalries known as TWO-WAY RIVALRIES When you think of the exceptional two-way rivalries that stand out throughout sports history, the obvious ones pop in your head like Ali-Frazier, Nicklaus-Palmer, Wilt-Russell, Magic-Bird, Manning-Brady, Evert-Navratilova, Agassi-Sampras, Federer-Nadal, Borg-McEnroe, Bradshaw-Staubach, Williams-DiMaggio, etc. Great list isn't it, although the author James Simpson II wants to shift your attention again to another type of rivalry that involves three players. Well, Simpson is bringing you the brand, spanking new, THREE-WAY RIVALRY This book will highlight the finest individual rivalries in threes the sports world has ever witnessed.
WW II books of 50 or more stories of boys on B-17 Flying Fortress crews, flying deadly missions with the Eighth Air Force in World War II. His writing is based on his teenage combat experiences as a B-17 radio/gunner on twenty combat missions with the 490th Bomb group, diaries and interviews of veterans of various bomb groups. Teenagers who volunteered to fly were trained and went into combat before they could legally vote or buy a drink. They signed up for the Army's Air Cadet Program and became a part of the greatest air armada in the world. Any of the gunners on a bomber crew were teenagers and twenty-four was the average age of pilots, bombardiers and navigators. Veterans' diaries give amazing reports of fighter attacks, flak damage and being shot down to become Prisoners of War. They were the youngsters who flew daylight bombing missions in the Mighty Eighth and destroyed Germany's military and war industry.

I have interviewed more than 400 veterans to preserve our history. My seven books record true accounts of life in the Greatest Generation. We flew on oxygen at 25,000 feet and 40 below zero to face enemy fighters and flak I often wondered if I would ever see my twentieth birthday. Our escort fighters protected us from enemy fighters, but only God could protect us as we flew into the black flak (exploding anti-aircraft 88 mm shells) filling the sky over the target. I am proud to have saved 300 or more short stories of fellow World War ll veterans in seven books and four recordings.

Howard Carter's discovery - the intact royal burial of Tutankhamun - ranks amongst the greatest archaeological triumphs of all time. The boy king's golden funerary mask is perhaps the most celebrated single masterpiece from the ancient world, but his tomb, largely undisturbed when Carter cut through the priestly door-seals in 1922, was filled with a wealth of other less well-known objects, mostly designed for the king's enjoyment in the afterlife. This work contains a vast range of photographs of the treasures discovered in the tomb, and provides a detailed description and explanation of each of the masterpieces displayed.
