Omar Khayyam and Etta James Mooning Santa Barbara and Gertrude Tennyson, Your Protruding Colossal Bush Has Really Got Me Going!

(Where Truth and Fiction Waltz)

By: Admiral Pat Arnold

Though his legal name is Shane Honeycone, he goes by the Indian spiritual moniker of Slim Rock. Hes a sixty-eight-year-old going on seventeen-year-old child of the Great Spirit; he considers himself an artistic jackknife of a spiritual guru whose universal consciousness is ever evolving to higher levels of enlightenment. In Omar Khayyam and Etta James Mooning Santa Barbara and Gertrude Tennyson, Your Protruding Colossal Bush Has Really Got Me Going!, author Admiral Pat Arnold offers a biography of the life of Slim Rock interspersed with a discussion and observation of Omar Khayyam, a Persian poet, mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher born in 1048. Slim Rock begins his diary entries in October of 2012 and shares his thoughts, feelings, and reflections of his life in California, his spiritual being, his love of women, his sexual escapades, and how Omar Kayyam and Etta James mooned Santa Barbara.

The Amphibians Came to Conquer: The Story of Richmond Kelly Turner

By: Vice Admiral George C. Dyer

Includes over 110 maps, charts and illustrations. His nickname was “Terrible Turner.” He was, according to one ensign who served with him prior to World War II, “the meanest man I ever saw, and the most competent naval officer I ever served with.” He led the successful amphibious attacks on Guadalcanal, Makin, Kwajalein, Roi-Namur, Saipan, Tinian, and Guam. He was Admiral Richmond Kelly Turner, one of the key figures in America’s defeat of Japan. In this fascinating and comprehensive biography, Vice Admiral George C. Dyer documents the tough and fearless leadership of Admiral Turner, his astonishing success in meeting some of the toughest challenges in the history of amphibious warfare, and detailed descriptions of the ships and men who fought under him. More than just a biography, The Amphibians Came to Conquer is a carefully documented history, both strategic and tactical, of the major campaigns in the Pacific from Guadalcanal to Okinawa, providing a wealth of information on how Terrible Turner and the men he commanded conquered island after island against a tough and determined foe. In an astonishing tribute to the tenacity of Turner and his men, a February 21, 1945 Japanese broadcast said: “The true nature of an alligator is that once he bites into something, he will not let go. Turner’s nature is also like this.” This remarkable book belongs in the library of any serious student of the war in the Pacific.

U-505

By: Rear-Admiral Daniel Vincent Gallery

Admiral Daniel V. Gallery boarded and captured a German U-Boat at sea in June, 1944—the first American officer to so capture an enemy warship since 1815! U-505 is Admiral Gallery’s own story of his extraordinary feat—and also a gripping narrative of the fierce Allied war against the German U-Boat fleet. “EXCELLENT.”—Chicago Tribune “Terrific...the first-hand story of Uncle Sam’s U-Boat killers.”—Chicago Daily News “Brimming with thrills.”—Philadelphia News “An engrossing tale...Pungent, entertaining, informative.”—Navy Times “A humdinger of a sea story...a highly readable book, trimmed from stem to stern with the writer’s irrepressible sense of humor.”—Chicago Sunday Times “Excellent in several ways: it provides a fine quick survey of the whole Atlantic war, it describes the operation of the German U-boat service, and, most dramatically, it tells how an American task force under Admiral Gallery achieved the unique feat of capturing a German submarine.”—Publishers’ Weekly “U-505 IS ONE OF THE WAR’S MOST EXCITING MEMOIRS.”—Chicago News “One of the best non-fiction books about World War II.”—Raleigh News & Observer “A first-rate adventure tale...suspense and excitement told with a seaman’s salty zest...excellent reading.”—Chicago Sunday Tribune “A masterful job that merits the attention of every lover of sea stories.”—Pittsburgh Press
