FROM THE FOREWORD BY MILLIE STEVENTON My Uncle Stan was a grumpy man when he began to write to me from Spain and he can’t be said to have mellowed much with age. This book contains only his letters to me, as his old-school habit of always referring to my missives removes the need to include my supportive, and sometimes censorious, replies which possess little of the descriptive power and mostly unintentional humour of his own copious correspondence. In a way I suppose that in the last few years I have been his only constant and empathic contact with the rest of humanity and this first ...

Danny Acuff, an insanely-talented detective and prior Force Recon Marine, returns to the hunt in Gravel Road. Danny's moved up in the world, working at the TBI (Tennessee Bureau of Investigation). He's paid a lot more, but the stakes are higher. MUCH higher. He's also been assigned a new partner. She’s -- quite frankly -- a bombshell. But she’s got sharp elbows. And she doesn't like Danny. Worse still, there’s a case that's either dangerous as hell; or completely non-existent. Yeah, one of those cases. It's the kind of case that either ends your career because you can't solve it, or ...

Marines are dying, things are messed up with command, and new forces led by a veteran Taliban leader have returned to the area of operations. Making things worse, the Taliban have smuggled in from Iran a new weapons system previously NEVER seen in Afghanistan.

Dolan, a private investigator and former Army Ranger, takes up the case of a missing seventeen-year-old girl after he learns that the cops are doing nothing. Not only is he the girl’s best chance: he’s her only chance. But she has a stunningly-attractive aunt, who's insisting on taking part in the chase. And that's not the only danger. As the trail leads up into the mountains and he closes in on finding her, Dolan begins to realize that he might be in over his head. And the hunter might just become the hunted.

Three great stories for one low price. ("Hill 406," "Soldier On," and "Little Man, and the Dixon County War.") From the pure hell of Afghanistan, to the corrupt and lawless Texas frontier, to the freezing forests of Germany (after the Battle of the Bulge in World War II), you'll find plenty of action in these three tales. Trust us: there is enough action to satisfy anyone's appetite. But you'll also find -- even in the fast pacing and first-rate dialogue -- a depth and solemnity to the books. And writing and pacing that will blow you away. There is a reason that everyone is starting to talk...

Angefangen hatte es mit diesem Podcast als Beschäftigungsmassnahme während dem grossen C. Damals stand die Kultur plötzlich still. Die Idee war einfach: Fränzi und Chanti treffen sich auf ein Interview mit kreativen, engagierten Menschen, welche in verschiedenen kulturellen Bereichen tätig sind. Diese haben nämlich spannende Geschichten aus ihrem Leben zu teilen. Nach einem Jahr kann dann noch Markus als dritter Host dazu. Per Ende 2023 wurde der Podcast eingestellt. Die drei bleiben vielseitig engagiert. Das Kulturschaffen wird weiterhin einen grossen Platz in ihrem Leben einnehmen.

Every show includes a mixed DJ set of Bass music. Wikipedia describes UK BASS as more an inclusion of hard bass elements in multiple genres than a distinct genre in itself. On the UK BASS podcast, studio5781 will be widening that criteria even more as our take on the style is more Americanized. Expect many artists not found on typical UK Bass lists, but make no mistake, it's all bass music. We will drop into distinctly American styles like Orlando/Florida Breaks, Funky Breaks, Bass-House, and more. Produced and mixed in North America at studio5781 by DJ J Stan and provided free for everyone. ...

This book tells the story of Stroud, Oklahoma and the county in which it is located: Lincoln County, Oklahoma. The reader needs to know this ain't your grandpa's dry and boring history book. As the author, I took the unusual path of telling this remarkable story in the "first person" style, grammatically. I dug way down deep in my own memories and my photo albums to illustrate many of the "bones" of my book. There are nearly 100 photos and a whole gaggle of graphics (over 120). Yep, the book is doggoned well-illustrated. And it is just flat easy-to-read, too. That is so in two ways: I try ...
