A Force To Be Reckoned With - Book 2 of the Reckoning Trilogy 5 of 5 Star Review... "You'll love it. I did. The middle book of a trilogy is often a slog: the characters are established, the setting and plot are established, and the final reckoning are one book away. Not so with "A Force...". New bad guys crawl out of the wood pile. New mysteries get solved. Even good guys get caught in their own missteps. And more clues to who is the one dishing out vengeance." Russell Salsbury Amazon Reviewer A Force to Be Reckoned With...A bold arsonist is on the loose. Who killed Fugate, the wife beating rapist? An infamous drug dealer comes back home and gets her just desserts. Is there a vigilante killer plaguing rural Kentucky? When his rural trailer burns, Tom Padgett tracks down the scum responsible. His normally cool composure disappears when he threatens the lowlife he believes to be the arsonist. Is the genie coming out of the bottle? Sheriff Bill Wilson is obsessed with Tom Padgett and has an equally strong devotion to his Jim Beam bottle. He concocts a trap to expose Tom by uncovering damning information about Padgett. When Becky Adkins returns to Kentucky from her hideout in Tennessee, she re-establishes her drug dealing profession and becomes trapped in a web of conspiracy. As Padgett and Wilson struggle with their inner demons, events spiral out of control and end with a deadly outcome. Just when you thought you had everyone figured out in Delayed Reckoning, A Force To Be Reckoned With will keep you guessing. If you like twisted plots and great characters, this is a must follow-up.

Jimmy Carter as President

Jimmy Carter was, according to Erwin Hargrove, the first modern Democratic president to be substantially ahead of the party coalition. Concerned with issues of the future - inflation, the need for tax reform, energy shortages - Carter anticipated many questions that are only now being addressed, nearly a decade after his troubled tenure in office. The years 1976 to 1980 were difficult years for a Democrat to be president - especially difficult for a southern moderate who viewed the world in Wilsonian terms and who was politically unaligned, essentially an outsider in his party and in Washington. But Carter's inability to read or manipulate the political scene was not the only problem to beleaguer his presidency. Events such as the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the capture of American hostages in Iran also worked against Carter, creating situations in which no amount of political acumen could have salvaged his presidency. Hargrove places Carter in historical perspective. Examining his frequently overlooked successes, as well as his failures, Hargrove analyses both the content and the methods of Carter's policy leadership. His style of leadership is studied in the light of his beliefs and values, and of his problem-solving skills and experience. This profile draws heavily upon interviews with members of Carter's White House staff. In a consideration for Carter's domestic, economic, and foreign policies, Hargrove shows the congruence of purpose, politics, and process as a president shapes decision making. Because Carter was skilled at solving specific problems, he achieved notable successes - the Panama Canal Treaty, the Camp David Accord, and the SALT II talks - when he could keep matters in his own hands. Yet, despite such policy successes, his inability to build strong coalitions and delegate authority, exacerbated by uncontrollable world events, doomed Carter to political defeat. Throughout Jimmy Carter as President, Hargrove emphasises that in our assessment of presidents, we should evaluate skill within the historical context and thereby better understanding the ingredients of presidential success. Hargrove's effective and extensive use of interviews proves the advantages of integrating oral history into scholarly research and writing.
