You’ve seen what these creatures can do if they put their mind to it.” International Wildlife Expert, Phillip Royle, is recalled to Florida mid-flight to help find his missing former federal enforcement colleague, Daniel Morgan, soon finding Dan’s messy remains in a tiger pen. But what the hell was Dan doing there? With many unanswered questions, Royle finds himself paired with Charlie Lacey, and together they become embroiled in a captivating enquiry leading to California, Mexico and then outback Australia, in an investigation involving smuggled parrots and drugs.

Book excerpt: A Major New Biography of a Man of Humble Origins Who Became One of the Great Military Leaders of the American Revolution On January 17, 1781, at Cowpens, South Carolina, the notorious British cavalry officer Banastre Tarleton and his legion had been destroyed along with the cream of Lord Cornwallis's troops. The man who planned and executed this stunning American victory was Daniel Morgan. Once a barely literate backcountry laborer, Morgan now stood at the pinnacle of American martial success. Born in New Jersey in 1736, he left home at seventeen and found himself in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. There he worked in mills and as a teamster, and was recruited for Braddock's disastrous expedition to take Fort Duquesne from the French in 1755. When George Washington called for troops to join him at the siege of Boston in 1775, Morgan organized a select group of riflemen and headed north. From that moment on, Morgan's presence made an immediate impact on the battlefield and on his superiors. Washington soon recognized Morgan's leadership and tactical abilities. When Morgan's troops blocked the British retreat at Saratoga in 1777, ensuring an American victory, he received accolades from across the colonies. In Daniel Morgan: A Revolutionary Life, the first biography of this iconic figure in forty years, historian Albert Louis Zambone presents Morgan as the quintessential American everyman, who rose through his own dogged determination from poverty and obscurity to become one of the great battlefield commanders in American history. Using social history and other advances in the discipline that had not been available to earlier biographers, the author provides an engrossing portrait of this storied personality of America's founding era--a common man in uncommon times.

Book excerpt: Over the vast distances and rough terrain of the Revolutionary War, the tactics that Daniel Morgan had learned in Indian fighting--the thin skirmish line, the stress upon individual marksmanship, the hit-and-run mobility--were an important element of his success as a commander. He combined this success on the battlefield with a deep devotion to the soldiers serving under him. In a conflict that abounded in vital personalities, Morgan's was one of the most colorful. Illiterate, uncultivated, and contentious, he nevertheless combined the resourcefulness of a frontiersman with a native gift as a tactician and leader. His rise from humble origins gives forceful testimony to the democratic spirit of the new America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Television is one of the most significant and notable inventions of the Twentieth century. Over the years, people have seen an overabundance of glitz and glamour on television. Homo sapiens used to turn on televisions in their living rooms to enjoy their TV dinners while watching the early movie, now we are pulverized by news and fluff. But what is really going on behind the camera? Stage manager Daniel Morgan gives you his insight into how the production crew works together to run and direct a show. From the shadows of the set, he shares newsroom shenanigans, attempts to explain the producer’s indecisions, and offers up tasty vignettes of the talent’s foibles. Finally, Morgan reveals the true nature of broadcast television and how it works (sometimes). Last Stage Manager Standing exposes the trade secrets and the politics behind the television industry. Working with some of my colleagues that ran the show was like a typical day in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the death of General Morgan, his papers, correspondence, &c., went into the possession of his son-in-law, General Presley Neville. During the fifteen or twenty years which succeeded, many of these papers were lost or destroyed. What remained of them at the termination of this period, however, were collected, arranged, and bound into two large volumes, by the general's grandson, Major Morgan Neville, to whom, at the death of his father, they were left. When he died, these volumes became the property of his widow, who submitted them to my perusal, with the object of ascertaining whether the publication of a select portion of their contents would be advisable or not. This collection is a very valuable one, embracing as it does, letters hitherto unpublished, from Washington, Greene, Lafayette, Wayne, Gates, Jefferson, Hamilton, Henry, Rutledge, and many other distinguished men of the revolutionary era.--pg. v.

Book excerpt: Private Investigator Daniel Morgan was killed in cold blood with an axe to the head in the pub car park of The Golden Lion, Sydenham, south London, on 10th March 1987. It was the most brutal of murders under the murkiest of circumstances. Who had wanted Daniel dead? What were they trying to hide? And, why were the police seemingly so reluctant to help? This book is the culmination of a life's work for Daniel's brother Alastair who for the last 30 years has done everything within his power to try to solve the riddle of his brother's death. His devotion has prompted five separate police inquiries, making it the most investigated murder in Britain's history, and has unearthed one of the most notorious episodes of police corruption and media cover-ups of our time. More recently, Alastair teamed up with journalist Peter Jukes who has investigated the case for the last four years, to produce hit podcast Untold, exploring every shocking twist and dark turn of the story of the Daniel Morgan murder and now they've brought all of their findings together in a richly-crafted and engrossing read. More than just a companion to the hit show, this book shares every tiny detail of the cold case, including the latest findings from a major public inquiry, and information from fresh sources who have come forward since the show. For fans of Making a Murderer and Serial, this engrossing story paints a picture of a murder most horrid and a cover-up even more so with a cast made up of bent cops, senior members of the underworld, and powerful media figures. Could you be the person to finally unlock the mystery of Daniel Morgan's murder? The facts are all here so the truth must be somewhere too...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The battle of Cowpens was a crucial turning point in the Revolutionary War in the South and stands as perhaps the finest American tactical demonstration of the entire war. On 17 January 1781, Daniel Morgan's force of Continental troops and militia routed British regulars and Loyalists under the command of Banastre Tarleton. The victory at Cowpens helped put the British army on the road to the Yorktown surrender and, ultimately, cleared the way for American independence. Here, Lawrence Babits provides a brand-new interpretation of this pivotal South Carolina battle. Whereas previous accounts relied on often inaccurate histories and a small sampling of participant narratives, Babits uses veterans' sworn pension statements, long-forgotten published accounts, and a thorough knowledge of weaponry, tactics, and the art of moving men across the landscape. He identifies where individuals were on the battlefield, when they were there, and what they saw--creating an absorbing common soldier's version of the conflict. His minute-by-minute account of the fighting explains what happened and why and, in the process, refutes much of the mythology that has clouded our picture of the battle. Babits put the events at Cowpens into a sequence that makes sense given the landscape, the drill manual, the time frame, and participants' accounts. He presents an accurate accounting of the numbers involved and the battle's length. Using veterans' statements and an analysis of wounds, he shows how actions by North Carolina militia and American cavalry affected the battle at critical times. And, by fitting together clues from a number of incomplete and disparate narratives, he answers questions the participants themselves could not, such as why South Carolina militiamen ran toward dragoons they feared and what caused the "mistaken order" on the Continental right flank.

Book excerpt: For more than 31-years the horrific murder of southeast London Private Detective Daniel Morgan remains unsolved. Daniel was murdered on the 10th of March 1987 in the car park of the Golden Lion Public House in Sydenham, London; he was found lying on the ground in a pool of blood with an axe embedded in his face. This was not a mugging or a robbery gone wrong. Daniel still had his Rolex watch on his wrist and nearly £1100 in his pocket. The murder weapon had been methodically prepared for the attack as the assailant used fabric tape on the handle to mask the weapon from fingerprints and aid in grip. Daniel's death was an execution - Daniel was silenced. After five failed police investigations and as we, the public, eagerly await the findings of the (Hillsborough style) Daniel Morgan Independent Panel inquiry, ordered in 2013, by then Home Secretary and subsequent Prime Minister Theresa May, no one has ever been convicted of this heinous crime. If you are just learning of this story you might ask yourself how this could be possible.An unsolved killing so horrific and catastrophic that the snowball effect of the ensuing investigations has lead the UK into one of the darkest periods in police law enforcement; which segued into the unravelling of the sensational media scandal - Hackgate. The News of the World phone hacking scandal involved unscrupulous private investigators and journalists and accusations of police bribery and corruption culminating into part one of The Leveson Inquiry; a judicial public inquiry into the culture, practices and ethics of the British press, chaired by Lord Justice Leveson who was appointed in July 2011.A series of public hearings were held throughout 2011 & 2012; a government inquiry which is unprecedented in modern times and remains unresolved to this day. Many people are now demanding part two of The Leveson Inquiry be instigated. Some believe connections to the inquiry might exist that could lead all the way back to the murder of Daniel Morgan.Daniel's murder has become one of the most expensive unsolved criminal investigations in UK history. Its notoriety should be considered second only to the killings of Jack the Ripper.This book is a true first-person account of the man Daniel was; written by his close friend and colleague David Bray. David met Daniel in 1984 and worked at Southern Investigations closely with Daniel every day in the year prior to his murder. David's unique insight into who Daniel was, his lifestyle and the day to day workings of Southern Investigations and the world of private investigators makes this a must read for anyone who has followed the investigations and all who would like to get to know the story.Morganologists around the world will now have a more comprehensive knowledge and understanding of Daniel Morgan from a close friend's perspective. The book contains actual witness testimony taken from the transcript of the 1988 inquest into the death of Daniel Morgan. David was a witness involved at the inquest. He was granted the status of a properly interested person by the Coroner and as such David received an official copy of the inquest transcript. Information is taken from the UK National Archives and Government Databases under licence. David has utilized certain media sources which, over the years have been reliable in reporting the murder investigations.Since the 10th of March 1987, David has remained a witness in the police investigations. He has stayed patient with an open mind in the hope that one-day true justice might be found. Until now David has remained silent and has never told his story of what life was really like at Southern Investigations and the world of Daniel Morgan."As I write these memoirs I think back to days gone by. At times I struggle with my thoughts and emotions of sadness but I know the reason why I am writing this book; you never forget tragedy.""Let me introduce you to my friend Danny Morgan."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A smart and funny book by a prominent Harvard psychologist, which uses groundbreaking research and (often hilarious) anecdotes to show us why we’re so lousy at predicting what will make us happy – and what we can do about it. Most of us spend our lives steering ourselves toward the best of all possible futures, only to find that tomorrow rarely turns out as we had expected. Why? As Harvard psychologist Daniel Gilbert explains, when people try to imagine what the future will hold, they make some basic and consistent mistakes. Just as memory plays tricks on us when we try to look backward in time, so does imagination play tricks when we try to look forward. Using cutting-edge research, much of it original, Gilbert shakes, cajoles, persuades, tricks and jokes us into accepting the fact that happiness is not really what or where we thought it was. Among the unexpected questions he poses: Why are conjoined twins no less happy than the general population? When you go out to eat, is it better to order your favourite dish every time, or to try something new? If Ingrid Bergman hadn’t gotten on the plane at the end of Casablanca, would she and Bogey have been better off? Smart, witty, accessible and laugh-out-loud funny, Stumbling on Happiness brilliantly describes all that science has to tell us about the uniquely human ability to envision the future, and how likely we are to enjoy it when we get there.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Late Godard and the Possibilities of Cinema is an exhilarating and extremely lucid analysis of the way Godard ‘thinks’ in, of, and through cinema. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of French culture, politics and theory, Morgan skillfully illustrates the complex relations between history, aesthetics, and nature in the director’s later works. Defying criticism of Godard’s alleged retreat from politics, this book provides compelling, detailed, and erudite analyses of his later films and illuminates the auteur’s political and aesthetic response to the so-called ‘death of cinema.’”— Mary Ann Doane, author of The Emergence of Cinematic Time: Modernity, Contingency, the Archive. “Daniel Morgan charts a sensible route into the impenetrable Jean-Luc Godard. Posing clear yet insistent questions, he burrows to the center of both parts of this book’s formidable title, finding in late Godard an aesthetic fusion that generates the light and heat of a trenchant and powerful political critique. Anyone who feels drawn or licensed to write about Godard should read Morgan before setting out.”—Dudley Andrew, author of What Cinema Is! “Daniel Morgan's Late Godard and the Possibilities of Cinema signals a major breakthrough in the international study of the cinema of Jean-Luc Godard. Reconciling the filmmaker's peculiarly Romantic sense of aesthetics —to which the book pays scrupulous, material attention—with the thorny political histories that Godard's cinema has always probed, Morgan gives us new, compelling, synthetic tools with which to understand an artist who is at once the most cryptic and the most sensuous of all living filmmakers.”—Adrian Martin, Monash University, co-editor of lolajournal.com
