Under Cover for Wells Fargo

The Unvarnished Recollections of Fred Dodge

By: Fred Dodge

These are the remarkable memoirs of Fred Dodge (1854-1938), Wells Fargo secret agent for fifty years, friend of Wyatt Earp, and fast man with a gun. Here are dozens of his cases--stage robberies, train holdups, long pursuits through the badlands, even suits against Wells Fargo for "delay to a corpse" and the bite of a vicious horse. In Under Cover for Wells Fargo his "unvarnished recollections" are preserved and carefully edited by Carolyn Lake, who discovered Dodge’s journals among Stuart N. Lake’s papers, awaiting a biography that was never written. Fred Dodge was a dead ringer for Morgan Earp, and this led to his early acquaintance with the famous brothers. In those days Dodge was posing as a gambler, and even Wyatt did not know that he was a Wells Fargo agent. Dodge sheds much light on the Earps in Tombstone and on how he teamed up with Heck Thomas to hunt down outlaws in Kansas and Oklahoma, including Bill Doolin’s gang and the Dalton brothers.

The Indiana Rail Road Company, Revised and Expanded Edition

America's New Regional Railroad

By: Christopher Rund,Fred W. Frailey,Eric Powell

The Indiana Rail Road Company is a story of extraordinary success among the scores of independent short line and regional railroads spawned in the wake of railroad deregulation. Christopher Rund chronicles the development of the company from its origins as part of America's first land grant railroad, the Illinois Central, through the political and financial juggling required by entrepreneur Tom Hoback to purchase the line when it fell into disrepair. Reborn as a robust, profitable carrier, the INRD has become a model for the new American regional railroad. This revised edition, with a new foreword by acclaimed author Fred Frailey and four new chapters, brings readers up to date on Tom Hoback's amazing railroad adventure.

History of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway

By: Keith L. Bryant|Frailey Jr. (Fred W.),Fred W. Frailey

Cyrus K. Holliday envisioned a railroad that would run from Kansas to the Pacific, increasing the commerce and prosperity of the nation. With farsighted investors and shrewd management, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway grew from Holliday's idea into a model of the modern, rapid, and efficient railroad. There were many growing pains early on, including rustlers, thieves, and desperadoes as well as the nineteenth century's economic and climatic hardships. The railroad eventually extended from Chicago to San Francisco, with substantial holdings in oil fields, timber land, uranium mines, pipelines, and real estate. This is the first comprehensive history of the iconic Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway, from its birth in 1859 to its termination in 1996. This volume discusses the construction and operation of the railway, the strategies of its leaders, the evolution of its locomotive fleet, and its famed passenger service with partner Fred Harvey. The vast changes within the nation's railway system led to a merger with the Burlington Northern and the creation of the BNSF Railway. An iconic railroad, the Santa Fe at its peak operated thirteen thousand miles of routes and served the southwestern region of the nation with the corporate slogan "Santa Fe All the Way." This new edition covers almost twenty-five more years of history, including the merger of the Santa Fe and Burlington Northern railroads and new material on labor, minorities, and women on the carrier along with new and updated maps and photographs.

The GROCER WHO SOLD McCARTHYISM: The Rise and Fall of Anti-Communist Crusader Laurence A. Johnson

By: Fred M. Fiske

Laurence A. Johnson, a supermarket chain owner in Syracuse, New York, wasn't just passionate about fresh produce; he was equally fervent about purging communism from America’s airwaves in the early 1950s. Teamed with like-minded anti-communists inspired by Senator Joseph McCarthy, Johnson targeted food giants like Borden and Kraft. His weapon? Fear. He threatened to hurt sales of their products if they sponsored TV and radio shows employing anyone blacklisted for alleged communist ties. Manufacturers gave in, effectively giving Johnson veto power over the hiring and firing of actors, directors, and writers. As a result, the careers of stars such as Jack Gilford, Judy Holliday, Uta Hagen, Kim Hunter, Jose Ferrer, and Joseph Cotten suffered. Fred M. Fiske's "The Grocer Who Sold McCarthyism" exposes this little-known chapter of American history, including a libel suit by CBS radio host John Henry Faulk in 1956 that aimed to end the blacklist, and to punish Johnson and others for their reckless attacks. Fiske's powerful biography explores Johnson's ascent from small-time grocery operator to kingmaker wielding Red Scare hysteria as a cudgel to shape the landscape of American entertainment and commerce. Through Johnson's journey, we gain insight into a pivotal moment in U.S. history when the nation grappled with fear, ideology, and the delicate balance between security and freedom.

Statistical Quality Control for the Six Sigma Green Belt

By: Bhisham C. Gupta,H. Fred Walker

This book is a desk reference and instructional aid for those individuals currently involved with, or preparing for involvement with, Six Sigma project teams. As Six Sigma team members, Green Belts help select, collect data for, and assist with the interpretation of a variety of statistical or quantitative tools within the context of the Six Sigma methodology. The second in a four-book series geared specifically for these Green Belt activities, this book provides a thorough discussion of statistical quality control (SQC) tools. These tools are introduced and discussed from the perspective of application rather than theoretical development. From this perspective, readers are taught to consider the SQC tools as statistical “alarm bells” that send signals when there are one or more problems with a particular process. Guidance is also given on the use of Minitab and JMP in doing these various SQC applications. In addition, examples and sample problems from all industries appear throughout the book to aid a Green Belt's comprehension of the material.

Destiny by Design

Destiny by Design

By: Fred H. Small

This book, Destiny by Design, begins with the portrait of a world as seen by a curious three year old African American boy. This boy was born at a very difficult time in history, grew up in a toxic world of challenging variables. Yet he clung tenaciously to the belief that life's episodes can be meaningful when clearly interpreted for the inquisitive mind. King David wrote: "I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread" Psalms 37:25 KJV. The author presents living proof that principles, practices, promises and plans, as exercised herein, will work miraculously for you as it has for him. Your destiny is by design. I urge you, Cooperate with the designer. Contrary to some belief systems, no one was predestined to be a failure. Success is: The progressive realization of personal, pre-determined, worthwhile goals. Once a noble goal has been set, any progress toward that goal is measurable success. Our creator declares: "I know the thoughts I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace and not evil, to give you an expected end." Jer. 29:11 "Before I formed you in the belly I knew you" Jer. 1:5a. "But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." Phil 4:19 KJV. We are not cosmic errors. We are gifted, anointed, commissioned, and Sent to earth to carry out a divine plan. Your Destiny is by Design. Destiny by Design does clearly illustrate how purpose is found and how plans for our mission and ministry on earth are joyously carried out. You can't lose with the stuff God use.

Destiny and Decision

The Molding of a Minister in the Twentieth Century

By: Fred R. Zimmerman

In this autobiography of a Christian minister, Fred R. Zimmerman tells the story of his life on the stage of world events that affected him either directly or indirectly. Born to be a minister, he first became aware of his calling early on in his boyhood. Orphaned at eighteen months during the flu pandemic of 1918–19, he was fortunate enough to be adopted by a childless couple. In their capacity as committed church-going Christians, he was wisely nurtured in his mission to become a minister. During his college and seminary years, crises accompanying this destiny began to arise. As his ministry developed through the years, destiny and decision became the yoke (Matthew 11:27–30) under which he exercised the burden of being a pastor. This is therefore a story not primarily of a person but of a God-appointed ministry.

Expatriate Adventures

By: Fred Richardson

The book is a memoir about my life; thus, I am qualified. I lived in Shanghais International Settlement and French Concession, protected by foreign troops and warships, from 1926 to 1940, then in Cuba195355; Venezuela, 195559; finally Guatemala, 196570, the years of my memoir. Today, at age eighty-seven, I live with my wife in a retirement community, Rockwood Forest Estates, in Spokane, Washington State. Its a nonfiction memoir, Expatriate Adventure. It tells of my life in Shanghai from age two to fifteen, 192640, in the French Concession and International Settlement, eventually surrounded by Japanese armies who had driven out Chinese troops from the area surrounding these foreign jurisdictions in the Sino-Japanese war beginning in 1937, ending with the defeat of Japan in World War II. Later, married and with a growing family, we lived as expatriates in Latin America, beginning as a trainee in Havana, 1953; then assistant manager in Caracas, Venezuela; then regional manager in Guatemala City, for eight countries. These assignments were not consecutive, being interrupted by assignments in New York, not described because its not expatriate living and therefore outside the theme of this memoir.

The Road to El Cielo

Mexico's Forest in the Clouds

By: Fred Webster,Marie S. Webster

Hidden high in the Sierra de Guatemala mountain range of northeastern Mexico in the state of Tamaulipas is the northernmost tropical cloud forest of the Western Hemisphere. Within its humid oak-sweetgum woodlands, tropical and temperate species of plants and animals mingle in rare diversity, creating a mecca for birders and other naturalists. Fred and Marie Webster first visited Rancho del Cielo, cloud forest home of Canadian immigrant Frank Harrison, in 1964, drawn by the opportunity to see such exotic birds as tinamous, trogons, motmots, and woodcreepers only 500 miles from their Austin, Texas, home. In this book, they recount their many adventures as researchers and tour leaders from their base at Rancho del Cielo, interweaving their reminiscences with a history of the region and of the struggle by friends from both sides of the border to have some 360,000 acres of the mountain declared an area protected from exploitation—El Cielo Biosphere Reserve. Their firsthand reporting, enlivened with vivid tales of the people, land, and birds of El Cielo, adds an engagingly personal chapter to the story of conservation in Mexico.

Norma Jean

The Life of Marilyn Monroe

By: Fred Lawrence Guiles

Marilyn Monroe remains the most provocative female legend of the twentieth century. What you may have known about her before was only the tip of the iceberg. For twenty years, the men and women who knew Marilyn best saw what they knew suppressed because certain important people were still living, and the tenor of the times prohibited frankness. Instead, rumors ballooned. This book finally sets the record straight. Fred Guiles—whom Norman Mailer acknowledges as the chief source of fact about Marilyn—has written the life behind the legend. He reveals what really happened in the careening career of the pretty waif named Norma Jean Mortensen, who married the boy next door, became a model, an actress, movie star, married an incompatible legend named Joe DiMaggio, sought to improve the mind that came with her near-perfect body, married playwright Arthur Miller, lent herself to the Svengalilike ministrations of Paula and Lee Strasberg, became the mistress of John and then Robert Kennedy when they ran the country, kept camera crews and studios waiting—but not death, which took her under the most unusual circumstances by the age of thirty-six. A legend, by definition, is unaltered by fact, but the enthralled reader will find the revelations in this book no deterrent to the love of Marilyn Monroe by understanding at last what happened to the Queen of Need. Among the people interviewed for this book are Arthur Miller; James E. Dougherty, her first husband; Frank Taylor, the producer of The Misfits; Lee Strasberg; Otto Preminger; Billy Wilder; Joshua Logan and John Huston.

Delphi Collected Works of Fred M. White (Illustrated)

By: Fred M. White

A British pulp fiction author of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, Frederick M. White produced a prolific number of novels and short stories, including the cult classic 'Doom of London' science-fiction stories. Helping to shape the course of sensation and mystery story literature, White was also a pioneer of the spy story.

Atlas of Nebraska

By: J. Clark Archer,Richard Edwards,Leslie M. Howard,Fred M. Shelley,Donald A. Wilhite,David J. Wishart

2018 Nebraska Book Award The state of Nebraska has a rich and varied culture, from the eastern metropolitan cities of Omaha and Lincoln to the ranches of the western Sand Hills. The first atlas of Nebraska published in over thirty years, this collection chronicles the history of the state with more than three hundred original, full-color maps accompanied by extended explanatory text. Far more than simply the geography of Nebraska, this atlas explores a myriad of subjects from Native Americans to settlement patterns, agricultural ventures to employment, and voting records to crime rates. These detailed and beautifully designed maps convey the significance of the state, capturing the essence of its people and land. This volume promises to be an essential reference tool to enjoy for many years to come.

The Coon-Sanders Nighthawks

"The Band That Made Radio Famous"

By: Fred W. Edmiston

Carleton A. Coon, Sr., and Hoe L. Sanders formed the Coon-Sanders Orchestra in 1919 in Kansas City, Missouri. Three years later, under the name "Nighthawks," the band began broadcasting experimental, highly-popular midnight radio programs over Kansas City's WDAF. Their music was played all over the world, and the band remained one of America's top bands until Coon's death in 1932. Here is the complete history of the Coon-Sanders Orchestra, the band whose saucy, and bustling music and carefree and extravagant musicians symbolized the era between World War I and the Great Depression.
