Indian Wars and Pioneers of Texas

By: John Henry Brown

The book leads the reader through the past to the present and here leaves him amid active and progressive men who are advancing, along with him, toward the future. Including, as it does, lives of men now living, it constitutes a connecting link between what has gone before and what is to come after. It is therefore fitting that it should be dedicated to a prominent man of our day in preference to one of former times. The matter presented, in the nature of things, is largely biographical. There can be no foundation for history without biography. History is a generalization of particulars. It presents wide extended views. To use a paradox, history gives us but a part of history. That other part which it does not give us, the part which introduces us to the thoughts, aspirations and daily life of a people, is supplied by biography. The men whose deeds are recorded in this book were or are deeply identified with Texas, and the preservation in this volume in enduring form of some remembrance of them—their names, who and what they were—has been a pleasant task to one who feels a deep interest and pride in Texas—its past history, its heroes and future destiny.

A Funny Place To Hold A War

By: John Harris

Ginger Donnelly is on the trail of Nazi saboteurs in Sierra Leone. Whilst taking a midnight paddle with a willing woman in a canoe, Donnelly sees an enormous seaplane thunder across the sky only to crash in a ball of brilliant flame. It seems like an accident...at least until a second plane explodes along the same flight path.

Redondo Beach Police Department

By: Michael L. Stark,Capt. John Skipper Ret.

The Redondo Beach Police Department dates to May 9, 1892, when Marshall S. Rogers was appointed as the citys first marshal. One of the first city ordinances prohibited the discharge of firearms within city limits and provided the option for hiring of a deputy if needed. He was needed, of course, as the city would grow into a major West Coast resort by the 1920s. The department adapted through the changes brought on by the Depression, World War II, and the postwar boom, serving and protecting citizens and fighting crime both unique to beach-city life as well as changing times while enforcing all laws for residents and tourists alike across the dawns of two centuries. In the 21st century, more than 250 sworn officers, support personnel, and volunteers serve one of Southern Californias most respected and innovative departments.

Thanks—Thanks A Lot

By: John Wooley,Brett Bingham

Billy Parker will always be one of the greats…I’m proud that he has this autobiography to really show who he was and is." ~ Dolly Parton A lover of country music and broadcasting from his earliest days, Billy Parker took his first tentative steps into both those fields while still in his teens, leading to lasting renown as both a top-rated deejay and country recording artist. Following a stint as the front man for Ernest Tubb’s famed Texas Troubadours, Billy returned to his native Oklahoma, where he originated one of the first nationally known overnight radio shows of the ‘70s. For years, Billy’s voice rode nightly over the mighty airwaves of the original KVOO, a 50,000-watt flamethrower that spread Billy Parker’s Big Rigger show all across the country. Later, as program director for the station, he helped many country performers at all levels, becoming well-known for giving everyone a fair shake, regardless of their stature in the industry. Thanks – Thanks A Lot doesn’t just refer to the famous hit record he cut back in the 1960s; it’s also Billy Parker’s sincere nod to those who helped make him what he is today: a performer with several national hits; a trailblazing, multiple-award-winning deejay; and—as the call letters of the station that brought him stardom indicate —nothing less than the Voice of Oklahoma. "Billy was so important to the Oak Ridge Boys. He helped break all our songs and the Midwest followed. Billy was a trusted voice of radio. I am so blessed that our paths crossed and we became good friends for over five decades." ~ Duane Allen (of the Oak Ridge Boys)

Heroes in Dungarees

The Story of the American Merchant Marine in World War II

By: Estate of: John Bunker

A World War II merchant seaman, John Bunker takes a thorough look at the American merchant marines' significant contributions to the war effort. There are plenty of fascinating facts about their extensive supply operations, but the focus of the book is on the men and their often-heroic actions. Bunker draws from his own experiences to describe the action at sea and also includes the personal stories of many other civilian participants. It is an engaging portrayal of the courage, bravery, and ingenuity demonstrated by these merchant seamen. All theaters of operation using U.S. merchant ships are covered; in addition, Bunker provides information on events before the country entered the war when efforts were being made to build more ships and to recruit the men necessary to crew the huge fleet.

The Ocean Roars

Sketches and Stories from the 50S and 60S

By: John Richard Nold

My lifelong passion has been for great literature, great music, great art including sculpture and architecture, and great philosophy. I had some talented English teachers in high school and at the junior college in St. Joseph, MO.; also at Kansas University in Lawrence, KS., with extra credits from the University of Missouri-Columbia and University of Missouri-Kansas City. This led to my embarking on a teaching vocation myself. I taught on several levels and I should have been able to use the experience to my benefit. Instead I had a breakdown that took me a while to recover from. While I was floundering my way out of this dilemma, I was hired by the City of Kansas City, MO. for a clerical position and was assigned to their Municipal Farm (a still flourishing prison farm) which eventually evolved into the Municipal Correctional Institution. I intended and expected that this would be a temporary expedient for me. I ended up staying for thirty years, mostly as a records officer at the prison. Ive never written about those years, but that may yet occur provided time allows. During those thirty years I was able to partake of the Citys rich cultural life and I read, read, read and also continued to write all through that period. Here are some stories from an earlier period of my life before most of these latter things happened. Eventually I broadened my horizon to include an interest in German literature and currently Im working at developing and honing my translation skills, hoping to make a contribution to the literary challenge of being a translator.
