Airtight

Security Solutions for the New Millennium

By: Clint Kirkwood

There is no greater adrenaline rush for an undercover narcotics officer than purchasing a bag of black tar from a heroin dealer and then walking to the street to signal the crew to make a mad dash for the front door, Halligan tool in full swing, shouting, Police, everybody on the floor! The malefactors are arrested, and another community can begin to heal. What is rarely seen is the preparation that went into the final bust, and the untold stories of those forced to live in the shadows because a short walk to the corner store could result in violence. AirTight demonstrates best practices to reduce and prevent these scenarios, by presenting contemporary, practical strategies to increase safety and security that are just as effective as iron bars, locks, and gates. AirTight explains how to work within the natural environment to create beautiful, secure spaces that encourage interaction, which promotes healthy communities. In addition, learn the strategies for preventing crime and potentially dangerous situations before they erupt.

Comanche Jack Stilwell

Army Scout and Plainsman

By: Clint E. Chambers,Paul H. Carlson

In 1863, the thirteen-year-old boy who would come to be called Comanche Jack was sent to the well to fetch water. Instead, he joined a wagon train bound for Santa Fe. Thus began the exploits of Simpson E. “Jack” Stilwell (1850–1903), a man generally known for slipping through Indian lines to get help for some fifty frontiersmen besieged by the Cheyenne at Beecher Island in 1868. Daring as his part in the rescue might have been, it was only one noteworthy episode of many in Comanche Jack Stilwell’s life—a life whose rollicking story is finally told here in full. In his later years, Stilwell crafted his own legend as a celebrated raconteur. Authors Clint E. Chambers (whose grandfather was Stilwell’s nephew) and Paul H. Carlson scour the available primary and secondary sources to find the unvarnished truth and remarkable facts behind the legend. In a crisp, fast-paced style, the narrative follows Stilwell from his precocious start as a teenage runaway turned teamster on the Santa Fe Trail to his later turns as lawyer, judge, U.S. marshal, hangman, and associate of Buffalo Bill Cody. Along the way, he learned Spanish, Comanche, and sign language, scouted for the U.S. Army, and became a friend of George A. Custer and an avowed, if failed, avenger of his kid brother Frank, an outlaw killed by Wyatt Earp. Unfolding against the backdrop of the Civil War, cattle drives, the Indian Wars, the Oklahoma land rush, and the rough justice of the Wild West, Comanche Jack Stilwell takes a true American character out of the shadows of history and returns to the story of the West one of its defining figures.
