Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chronicles the eighteen years that a teacher worked in a maximum-security prison. Coming from twenty-five years in sales, Stan Lockshin had made the bold career transition to forever change his life. At the age of forty-six, there was an eager, burning question that prodded him: what will he do when he "grows" up? Nevertheless, he decided to go back to teaching, but of course, not at a public school, but rather at the California Department of Corrections, the institution where he worked until he retired. Covering the daily routine of working with inmates, security guards, and the teachers of the Education Department, Lockshin writes how it was to be placed in a yard full of inmates with lifetime sentences, as well as how to convert those who have failed themselves and society, killers who couldn't care less about an education, and turn negative activity to positive activity step by step. You will discover that, even with all the downsides, Lockshin was able to provide an optimistic success via the GED program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people associate concentration camps with Nazi Germany. Behind Barbed Wire examines how these notorious World War II camps actually reflected a previous use of the system, a system that began almost a century earlier. In truth, Adolf Hitler had studied the American Indian Reservations as he plotted his regime's attack on European Jews and other minorities. Remarkably, in the years between the reservations and the Nazi camps, the United States, along with several other Western powers, implemented concentration camps throughout the globe, each instance employing more and more barbaric measures with harsher and harsher outcomes. Behind Barbed Wire explains how these nations dubiously justified camp operations by citing military counterinsurgency tactics, containment policies, and simply the ability to prosecute war more easily. This brief history addresses the subliminal reasons for relocating hundreds of thousands of civilians, why the system became so prevalent, and how concentration camps existed under the cover of armed conflict. It argues that, most often, camps can be facilitated only under the guise of war. Anyone with an interest in military history, World War II, concentration camps, and the plight of the Jews will discover how all these topics converge into a compelling story of war, bigotry, and military might. Behind Barbed Wire also sheds light on the concentration camp systems that have been employed since the fall of the Nazi dictatorship. With current geopolitical issues focusing on elitism, xenophobia, deplorables, terrorism, and military necessity, this book offers some understanding about the unintended consequences of policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On December 8, 1941, Japanese troops methodically took over the U.S. Marine guard posts at Peiping and Tientsin, causing both to surrender. Imprisoned first at Woosung and then at Kiangwan in China, the men were forced to laboriously construct a replica of Mount Fujiyama. It soon became apparent that their mountain was to be used as a rifle range. In 1945 the author was among those transferred to the coal mining camp at Uteshinai in Japan. Recounted here are descriptions of the living and working conditions at the prison camps in China, the treatment of American prisoners by their Japanese captors, and how the POWs were able to hold themselves together.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the oppression and terror of the killing fields in Cambodia, this is the story of how one man's conversion led to a rebirth of faith that brought hope to a nation. Commissioned by Communists to spy on a Christian evangelistic crusade, Barnabas Mam instead discovered Jesus and came to faith in Him. After spending four years in prison camps at the hands of the Khmer Rouge Barnabas emerged as one of only 200 surviving Christians in all of Cambodia. God raised him up to became the foremost evangelist and church planter in a land broken by genocide. An inspiring story on a personal, church, and national level, this is more than a narrative--it's a blueprint for success for church growth of the most powerful kind.

Book excerpt: The 10th anniversary edition, now with a new preface by the author "A wonderfully smart, lively, and culturally astute survey." - The New York Times Book Review "Grand entertainment...fascinating for anyone curious about the perplexing miracles of how great television comes to be." - The Wall Street Journal "I love this book...It's the kind of thing I wish I'd been able to read in film school, back before such books existed." - Vince Gilligan, creator of Breaking Bad and co-creator of Better Call Saul In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the landscape of television began an unprecedented transformation. While the networks continued to chase the lowest common denominator, a wave of new shows on cable channels dramatically stretched television’s narrative inventiveness, emotional resonance, and creative ambition. Combining deep reportage with critical analysis and historical context, Brett Martin recounts the rise and inner workings of this artistic watershed - a golden age of TV that continues to transform America's cultural landscape. Difficult Men features extensive interviews with all the major players - including David Chase (The Sopranos), David Simon and Ed Burns (The Wire), David Milch (NYPD Blue, Deadwood), Alan Ball (Six Feet Under), and Vince Gilligan (Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul) - and reveals how television became a truly significant and influential part of our culture.

Book excerpt: SYNOPSIS: Little Red is a squirrel of the little red species. When we meet him, he is lost. He has looked for his family and the nest where he lived, but has not been able to find them. He has just arrived in The Yard. The story ends one year later a whole generation in the life of the squirrel and we finds that we have come full circle as Reds son, Chuck, is lost and cannot be found. But, after much searching, thought, and grief, we come to understand as Red explains to the Friends in The Yard. Thats the way with little red squirrels. But, during that year, we share many exiting adventures as Little Red makes a new home and meets and interacts with all the Friends in the yard, especially Grey Squirrel, Woodchuck, The Doves, Blue Jays, Little Lady, and, even, the evil Weasel. We follow Red through the tall trees, along the wires, and we enjoy the fun games in Woodchucks tunnels. We see Reds caring and thoughtful nature when Little Lady is hurt, and, again, when Chuck and Woody are born. The reader will identify with Red and with his friends in The Yard. We laugh at, and with, this feisty and lovable little red squirrel as he zips through life in The Yard.

The authors recommend that detailed doctrine should be in place prior to detention and that detainees should be surveyed when first detained.

Book excerpt: In this riveting, action-packed novel from award-winning author Will Hobbs, a teenage boy hoping to help his loved ones must fight for his life as he makes the dangerous journey across the Mexican border into the United States. When falling crop prices threaten his family with starvation, fifteen-year-old Victor Flores heads north in an attempt to "cross the wire" from Mexico into America so he can find work and help ease the finances at home. But with no coyote money to pay the smugglers who sneak illegal workers across the border, Victor struggles to survive as he jumps trains, stows away on trucks, and hikes grueling miles through the Arizona desert. Victor's passage is fraught with freezing cold, scorching heat, hunger, and dead ends. It's a gauntlet run by many attempting to cross the border, but few make it. Through Victor's desperate perseverance, Will Hobbs brings to life a story that is true for many, polarizing for some, but life-changing for all who read it. Acclaim for Crossing the Wire includes the following: New York Public Library Books for the Teen Age, Junior Library Guild Selection, Americas Awards Commended Title, Heartland Award, Southwest Book Award, and Notable Books for Global Society.
