Book excerpt: The trilogy is complete as Richard Stern, the FBI, and mysterious events come together. An angel must be guiding Mr. Stern from Ohio to Oregon as he continues to harass the enemy as only Mr. Stern can do. Call it luck, great premonition or both, but Stern unintentionally baffles the enemy. Terrorist leaders must change their plans to assault Middle America. The terrorist leaders continuously revise and downsize the plan as Richard Stern finds pieces of the terrorist puzzle. Stern keeps the FBI informed. Even the FBI has a tough time deciphering and believing the information from the alcoholic. Agents Ron Roman and Bill Wright use Stern's information to drive a wedge into the gears of terrorism. The crime fighter's efforts receive additional help from two highly unusual sources. Alert citizens and legends are factors that derail the terrorist's plan. Terrorist leaders are forced into abandoning schemes to hold whole towns hostage. They downsize the operation and move to a softer target. Two cities compete in a boat race. These two party boats become the targets. The FBI is confronted with the emotionally charged hostage situations. The suicide bombers have little chance of success. FBI agents have two choices and both are considered suicidal.

The residents of Lake Erie’s North coast have trouble leaving—even after they die. The area is flooded with the spirits of locals, some friendly, some not. See the sorrowful eyes of the Hauntingly Beautiful High School Student, who floats the corridors looking for her lost boyfriend, and head to an old Port Clinton hotel to watch the ghost of a maintenance man wander haphazardly through the inn, making routine repairs. Read about the figure that lurks in the clock of the Port Clinton Courthouse every night, never moving, simply watching, until disappearing with the sun. Local ghost tour guide Victoria King Heinsen has a personal connection with every story, and her firsthand accounts will turn every paranormal skeptic into a believer. Includes photos!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Late, Great Lakes is a powerful indictment of man's carelessness, ignorance, and apathy toward the Great Lakes. With the longest continuous coastline in the United States, they hold one-fifth of the world's freshwater supply. Author William Ashworth presents a compelling history of the Great Lakes, from their formation in the Ice Age, to their "discovery" by Samuel de Champlian in 1615, and, finally, to their impending death in our time. Ashworth systematically deals with the wild life that once flourished in the region-beaver, salmon, whitefish, and trout-and describes the threatening elements which have displaced them-the predatory sea lamprey, the alewives, toxic waste, and volatile solids.

Book excerpt: Lake Erie and an elaborate system of canals provided the transportation network that created the Nineteenth Century Industrial Heartland of the United States. New York State s Erie Canal, running from Buffalo to Albany, connected Lake Erie with the Hudson River and the Atlantic Ocean. The Ohio and Erie Canal connected Lake Erie with the Ohio River. Beginning at Cleveland, it ran up the Cuyahoga Valley to the Portage Summit and Akron. Then it followed the Tuscarawas Valley south to Roscoe and on to Dresden before reaching Portsmouth on the Ohio River. Feeder canals connected it with the Shenango and Beaver Divisions of Pennsylvania s Erie to Pittsburgh Canal. Ohio s Miami and Erie Canal connected Toledo on Lake Erie with Cincinnati on the Ohio River. A feeder canal connected the canal with Indiana s Wabash and Erie Canal. These canals were the highways of the 1830s and 40s. By facilitating commerce, they contributed to the industrial development of the region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of Lake Erie’s most mysterious and notorious wrecks and disappearances. The great lakes have seen many ships meet their end, but none so much as Lake Erie. As the shallowest of the Great Lakes, Lake Erie is prone to sudden waves and wildly shifting sandbars. The steamer Atlantic succumbed to these conditions when, in 1852, a late-night collision brought sixty-eight of its weary immigrant passengers to watery graves. The 1916 Black Friday Storm sank four ships—including the “unsinkable” James B. Colgate—in the course of its twenty-hour tantrum over the lake. In 1954, a difficult fishing season sent the Richard R into troubled waters in the hopes of catching a few more fish. One of the lake's sudden storms drowned the boat and three-man crew. At just fifty miles wide and 200 miles long, Lake Erie has claimed more ships per square mile than any other body of freshwater. Author David Frew dives deep to discover the mysteries of some of Lake Erie’s most notorious wrecks. “Well-illustrated with maps, historic and contemporary photographs, and various advertisements and news announcements, Frew’s engaging study ends with a reasoned, historically grounded discussion of the question, “Is Lake Erie’s shipwreck era over?” —OHS Bulletin
