Download or read book Bloody Jungle Rain written by M. J. Earle and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most compelling and thought-provoking Vietnam stories ever told begins with an explosion that seriously injures Corporal James Morrison. At first he wonders why he's lying on his back and it's raining on a sunny day. Then he realizes it isn't rain coming down, but human blood. Bloody Jungle Rain explores what happens to the reluctant Marine who was wounded in 1968. His brush with death brings Morrison to an operating room and a near-death experience that changes his life forever. The wounded Marine faces Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, depression, alcoholism and a broken marriage. Yet through his maze of problems there runs a thread of determination and the hope of finding a peaceful harbor. Sadly though, peace was difficult to find for many Vietnam veterans returning home to an unsympathetic public. This story about courage by Colorado native M.J. Earle was written to remember a childhood friend killed in Vietnam. The author says it proves that it is possible to overcome horrendous problems as long as there is faith and hope in the human heart.

Book excerpt: Det. Sgt. Apelu Soifua faces a crime tsunami in the fourth tropical mystery set on American Samoa from the author of The Dead Don’t Dance. There have been many changes in Apelu Soifua’s life, but his job in the criminal investigation division has been the one constant. For years, a series of killings on the island has baffled him, starting with the murder of a cross-dresser, whose body was found with a cross carved into the chest. Four more men fall—different races, different classes, different deaths. Not all marked with the religious symbol, but somehow all connected. Apelu is sure of it. With the help of new medical examiner Dr. Laura Alomar, Apelu follows his instincts into what will be the most complicated and twisted case of his career. An open grave on a widow’s lush plantation signals the end of Apelu’s tolerance for his violent job and the collateral damage it inflicts on his friends and loved ones. In a literal paradise on earth, the monsters come like a devil in disguise . . . “A very rich and textured mystery . . . Blood Jungle Ballet and all the rest of John Enright’s Jungle Beat mysteries are perfect blends of setting, character and story. They’re just the thing for anyone who loves traveling the world solving crime from his comfy armchair.” —Kittling: Books

Book Synopsis Live, Love, Explore by : Leon Logothetis
Download or read book Live, Love, Explore written by Leon Logothetis and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part travel memoir, part self-help book, Live, Love, Explore is a guide to finding meaning and adventure in your everyday life and discovering the road you were always meant to walk. By bestselling author, Leon Logothetis, from the Netflix Series, The Kindness Diaries. Leon Logothetis’s life was well plotted out for him. He was to do well in school, go to university, get a job in finance, and spend the next fifty years of his life sitting behind a slab of wood, watching the rain-slicked streets of London from thirty floors above. For a long time, he followed that script, until one day, he finally realized he was living someone else’s life—a good one—but not one of his own choosing. So he walked out of that life, and discovered the one that took him around the world. Since then, Leon has driven a broken-down English taxicab across America, offering people free rides; ridden a vintage motorbike around the world, relying solely on the kindness of strangers; and followed a fellow traveler through India without ever knowing where he was going. He has visited more than 90 countries on every continent. Along the way, he learned something about the human spirit and about the heart of this world. He learned that he needed to shed his old ideas about who he was supposed to be in order to feel his soul rise to the surface and become the person he always longed to be. The wisest words he heard, and the greatest lessons he learned, came from everyday people he met on his travels. He became their accidental student, and after years of sharing those lessons through TV shows, college tours, books, and in the media, he realized that he had also become an accidental teacher. His experiences are more than a collection of stories, they have become a way of life—the Way of the Traveler. So, what is the Way of the Traveler? It’s a roadmap to living your best life, loving with all your heart, and exploring the world—both the great and adventurous one waiting outside your door, and the even greater, more adventurous one waiting within your soul. Weaving together Leon’s hilarious and heartwarming stories of his misadventures on the road with simple but profound exercises to help you uncover your true path, Live, Love, Explore will teach you how to live fully and without regrets. It’s not to say that everyone who reads it will have to go to the ends of the world. Because you don’t have to go to Mongolia to discover the truths that lie inside. No, those life lessons can just as easily be learned from the people all around you--the chap serving you coffee at Starbucks, the woman sitting next to you on a plane, your co-workers, family, and friends. There’s an entire world of people willing to teach you their lessons if you’re willing to learn. And by opening yourself up to new adventures, by recognizing that you have the freedom to choose your own road, you’ll find something else that has been hiding in plain sight: you’ll find the life of which you have always dreamed… and the curiosity and courage it takes to make that life happen.

Book Synopsis A Piper in Brazil by : James Donal Faulkner
Download or read book A Piper in Brazil written by James Donal Faulkner and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2006-04-19 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book recounts adventures: some on a tropical Brazilian island and some in merry sessions with the Irish uilleann pipes in and around Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. Women--Brazilian and foreign-are ubiquitous. The style is a light-hearted pastiche of academic writing, though some of the adventures (and misadventures) are quite alarming. Many interesting insights into Brazil appear--some inspired from Jean De Lery's fascinating 16th-century account, Histoire d'Un Voyage Faict en Terre du Bresil. The text is illustrated throughout with the titles and opening bars of traditional tunes. There is a wealth of poetry and fun in these titles. This is a unique feature: the esoteric collection of tunes alone makes it a reference for all musicians with a sense of humour. It is also unusual in the degree to which other languages figure. The book is about real people in the real world and Portuguese, Spanish, French, Gaelic, and Latin ( ) all figure in addition to English, with translations where necessary.
Download or read book Shadows of War written by Mike Johnson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shadows of War tells the story of World War II as few Americans know it. In the mid-1930s a high school history teacher inspires a student to look beyond his small hometown. He becomes a Foreign Service officer, and they then anchor a World War II story that provides perspectives little known to Americans. A Romanian princess cares for more than 3,000 orphans and rescues more than 1,000 downed American flyers - and tussles with the SS to keep the POWs from their control at considerable risk to herself. On air raids over Romania, American crews must fly 1,200 miles - on creatively named planes such as Wingo-Wango and Jersey Bounce - at just 50 feet off the "deck" to launch attacks on the stoutly defended oil refineries at Ploesti. In Singapore and Malaysia a mild-mannered father of seven becomes a resistance leader after the Japanese invasion, and four gutsy nuns who serve as nurses try to stay a step ahead of the brutal conquerors.
