Book excerpt: In 2020, during the Covid Pandemic, casual travel, travel purely for pleasure, ended abruptly. The Trip Not Taken is a well-pictured story of a vacation that existed only in the traveler's imagination. Touring in a world without Covid, the author explores the culture and history of the Baltics. Beginning in medias res, the story opens in Riga, Latvia, after breakfast, on a cloudy day. The tour group follows the day's itinerary of visiting museums, churches and restaurants. Through pictures and words, the narrator shares her experiences. For the most part, the tour group interactions remain in the background. From Riga, the tour continues to Tallinn, Estonia and St. Petersburg, Russia where the story takes an unexpected turn. The tour is ending and the author considers whether she is ready to go home. With increasing independence, the narrator extends her trip in the Baltics, forgoing the safety of the tour group. She chooses her own path out of Russia and back to the European Union, and experiences the Baltics on a more personal level, making friends and learning how to live like a local not a tourist. As Covid restrictions ease and the vaccine is widely available, this book will be followed by The Trip Taken in which the narrator experiences the journey she only imagined.
Book Synopsis The Road Not Taken: Edward Lansdale and the American Tragedy in Vietnam by : Max Boot
Download or read book The Road Not Taken: Edward Lansdale and the American Tragedy in Vietnam written by Max Boot and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 784 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize (Biography) A New York Times bestseller, this “epic and elegant” biography (Wall Street Journal) profoundly recasts our understanding of the Vietnam War. Praised as a “superb scholarly achievement” (Foreign Policy), The Road Not Taken confirms Max Boot’s role as a “master chronicler” (Washington Times) of American military affairs. Through dozens of interviews and never-before-seen documents, Boot rescues Edward Lansdale (1908–1987) from historical ignominy to “restore a sense of proportion” to this “political Svengali, or ‘Lawrence of Asia’ ”(The New Yorker). Boot demonstrates how Lansdale, the man said to be the fictional model for Graham Greene’s The Quiet American, pioneered a “hearts and minds” diplomacy, first in the Philippines and then in Vietnam. Bringing a tragic complexity to Lansdale and a nuanced analysis to his visionary foreign policy, Boot suggests Vietnam could have been different had we only listened. With contemporary reverberations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria, The Road Not Taken is a “judicious and absorbing” (New York Times Book Review) biography of lasting historical consequence.

Download or read book Chapin’s World written by J. G. Chapin and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-08-26 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chapin’s World is purely a figment of the author’s warped imagination, so please don’t report him to the authorities because there is nothing that can be done. He was born thinking like this. And, it was inevitable that his mind would be unleashed upon an unsuspecting public. Chapin’s World, subtitled A Mid Amid is a book-of-life as seen through the green, ‘mid-life’ eyes of a member of a highly exploited (as of yet, unentitled) minority - redheads! It is a collection of humorous short stories of the author’s early life, family camping-trip shenanigans, vacation pranks and mishaps, and how he grew to be ‘mid’ in America’s Heartland. His light-hearted style allows the reader a chance to experience unpleasant circumstances with humor, and to tag along as he turns the most simple of situations into full-blown calamities. Chapin’s narrative of his childhood reads like a tale by a modern day Samuel Clemens. The stories progress randomly through his life to include ‘mid-- with -- kid.’ Chapin’s World will drag you along with Chapin, his family, and a few ‘less-than role model’ friends into, but not out of ‘mid-life.’ the author is determined to find your funny bone even if he has to use a chainsaw. A Mid Amid contains twenty-seven mildly amusing, yet wildly outrageous tales by the ‘Master of Personal Disaster.’ In case you are unaware of Chapin’s writing style, he has used the formula of mixing equal, half-portions of wit and narrative. Chapin has now become quite distinguished for his ‘half-wit’ humor. But, such is Chapin’s World. If you or a loved one is struggling through the ‘mid-life’ crisis (or if you just have the strange urge to help a confessed liar succeed) then Chapin’s World - A Mid Amid is surely required reading.
