Book Synopsis The Last Horse Patrol by : Homer A. Taylor
Download or read book The Last Horse Patrol written by Homer A. Taylor and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1977, drug smuggling was rampant in the southern Arizona desert. Using horses, smugglers made a massive profit, as these horse trains were much more difficult to detect-until the United States Customs Patrol decided to beat these smugglers at their own game. Horses seized from the drug dealers were used by Customs Patrol agents, and soon the smugglers were running from the law. The Last Horse Patrol is the firsthand account of this law enforcement agenda, written by a retired member of the Customs Patrol, Homer Taylor. Taylor was an important part of the team, with extensive experience in the park service and in-depth knowledge of the Arizona desert. But it is not only a retelling of the how, when, and why of Customs Patrol; it's a retelling of livelihood and friendship in the summer heat. It wasn't all work and no play for these Customs Patrol officers. Together, they formed friendships and lifelong connections beneath the starry desert skies. Later, they mourned the closure of the Customs Patrol-the most cost effective and successful force against drug smuggling in United States history. For Homer Taylor, it was an experience he would never forget; for our country, it was a victory in the war on drugs.

Book Synopsis Bedrooms of the Fallen by : Ashley Gilbertson
Download or read book Bedrooms of the Fallen written by Ashley Gilbertson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-06-27 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a decade, the United States has been fighting wars so far from the public eye as to risk being forgotten, the struggles and sacrifices of its volunteer soldiers almost ignored. Photographer and writer Ashley Gilbertson has been working to prevent that. His dramatic photographs of the Iraq war for the New York Times and his book Whiskey Tango Foxtrot took readers into the mayhem of Baghdad, Ramadi, Samarra, and Fallujah. But with Bedrooms of the Fallen, Gilbertson reminds us that the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have also reached deep into homes far from the noise of battle, down quiet streets and country roads—the homes of family and friends who bear their grief out of view. The book’s wide-format black-and-white images depict the bedrooms of forty fallen soldiers—the equivalent of a single platoon—from the United States, Canada, and several European nations. Left intact by families of the deceased, the bedrooms are a heartbreaking reminder of lives cut short: we see high school diplomas and pictures from prom, sports medals and souvenirs, and markers of the idealism that carried them to war, like images of the Twin Towers and Osama Bin Laden. A moving essay by Gilbertson describes his encounters with the families who preserve these private memorials to their loved ones, and shares what he has learned from them about war and loss. Bedrooms of the Fallen is a masterpiece of documentary photography, and an unforgettable reckoning with the human cost of war.
