Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of stories provided from personal experiences of Stan Stoops. The stories take place on the east and west coasts of the United States, the Hawiian Islands, the Filipino Islands, and the now nonexistent South Vietnam and finally end up where it all started, in Southeast Iowa. The topics range from stories about inmates, stories about women, and the most preferred subject of all, fishing. There are a few other topics thrown into the mix, hopefully for the enjoyment of the reader. The author's mentality in writing these stories was to crowd the element of humor and to take the best out of each day no matter what the day may have had to offer. So make it a better day, and enjoy reading

Book excerpt: The rotary jail was a very unusual architectural design. In response to a need for better control over prisoners, 18 of the revolving, escape-proof structures were erected in the United States from 1882 through 1889. There were problems. There were mechanical difficulties due to the extreme weight of the components. Unwary prisoners lost digits or limbs when carousels were rotated without warning--one lost his life. Because inmates could only be let out of their cells one at a time, some rotary jails were closed as fire hazards. This book describes in detail their construction, operation and eventual demise, as well as some of the colorful inmates that were held in them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of the Madoff scandal, this compelling tale is a searing indictment of the SEC and FINRA regulators who allowed market manipulation and outright larceny to infest America's capital markets. Against a backdrop of a traumatic financial meltdown, a few tenacious Pro Se litigants drop in uninvited on the unfamiliar turf of a dysfunctional Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Delaware. Follow the author as he navigates an unchartered path through a financial and legal wilderness inhabited by Taiwanese syndicates, Greenwich hedge funds, Fifth Avenue bankruptcy lawyers and complicit regulators. Along the way he is embraced by comrades who join him as he traverses the peaks and valleys of this improbable journey. This quixotic account of how this 'band of brothers' fought the good fight against the cabal of crooks that ripped them off reads like a John Grisham novel. For some great court room drama, this book is a must read. As you turn the pages, you will be astounded by the financial outrages that go unchallenged by our delinquent regulators and the permissive judiciary that allows corporate swindlers to cover up fraud by declaring bankruptcy.

Book excerpt: Who is Spook Smith? The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) consists of highly trained agents used by our federal government for a variety of purposes, spying on foreign governments at the top of the list. Many times the operatives are called spooks because they have an invisible image, just like ghosts. The vast majority of CIA agents abide by the law of the land and their sworn oath to uphold and live up to it--but some few do not. One certain CIA agent swore an oath at one time that he kept. He swore that he would get more than even with that team of military police officers that interfered in an illegal drug-smuggling operation he was carrying out for personal gain. They would pay with their lives if they exposed him. His coconspirators reached all the way up into the White House, and he was given protection from prosecution. He was taken off CIA payroll, but that did not trouble him--he had already been working for a major criminal enterprise operating internationally and domestically, making megabucks! Among other evil deeds, he was heading up an operation of kidnapping young attractive girls for sale to foreign dignitaries to install in their harems. One girl he kidnapped and sold to a Saudi prince for a million dollars escaped the harem and found her way back to the USA, reported the crime to the FBI using a fake name for herself--then disappeared. She just happened to be the baby sister of the key man who interfered in Spook Smith's drug-smuggling enterprise. Because she escaped, there was a hit order on her life. Was Spook Smith able to find her and kill her as he was ordered to do?

Steve Allen was an alcoholic who overcame his battle and yet lost in a terrible relapse. His story is here to help those who find themselves trapped in a bottle of despair. There is hope. Steve started drinking at age fourteen and never stopped for years. He eventually entered rehab for the first time at age twenty-seven. After several tries Steve finally became sober and remained sober for eighteen years. During those sober years, Steve's life took off. He went from paramedic to firefighter, to fire chief to fire protections engineer. He had it all. He was in his second marriage, and he had all the material things he wanted. He had a wife with a successful career and two wonderful boys. Steve thought he was 'cured' and could handle 'moderate' drinking. Once he started again, he couldn't stop. He lost his wife, his children, his job, and everything he owned. In the midst of his drinking, detoxing, rehab, and drinking cycles, he met his third wife. He finally became sober again, which inspired him to write this book. Shortly after writing this book, the damage to Steve's body took its toll. This is his story, his struggle, and his hope to help. This is Grace Anonymous.
