Beyond Shock and Awe: Warfare in the 21st Century

Product Details

Product Description from Amazon
Media commentator Eric L. Haney-one of twelve founding Delta Force members and author of Inside Delta Force-along with other outstanding military analysts and award-nominated editor Brian M. Thomsen, examine our evolving military in the face of changing times, technology, and adversaries. From possible invasions of Syria or Iran-or a major military stand-down with North Korea-Beyond Shock and Awe is a provocative vision of America's military of the future. Included are articles by Harlan K. Ullman and James P. Wade, Jr., who first used the term "shock and awe"; Professor William Forstchen on how precision guided weaponry will eliminate "problem" individuals before war can begin; Eugene Sullivan on the legality of preemptive attacks; William Terdoslavich on how America's swift victory in Iraq turned into a bloody stalemate; John Helfers on how cultural knowledge helps win wars and build alliances; and Eric Haney on gaining Rapid Dominance of adversaries through shock and awe.

The Land Where Our Fathers Died (Link)

JAMES H. BIRDSONG

 is available at  Colonial Heights, home of the author, as well as at the Rome-Floyd County Library gift shop, retailing for $25. Written by James H. Birdsong who lives in the old Ford-Gibbons Plantation, near "Six Mile" off  US Highways 27 & 411 on Booze Mountain Road, this historical novel embellishes the history of the area from 1832 until after the Civil War in a masterful telling of the stories of  powerful forces at work shaping area and Indian history in this fascinating and beautiful region of Northwest Georgia. Mr. Birdsong became interested in the project after learning the early history of his home, (which he and his wife have faithfully restored in as near its original form as possible,) from descendants of the original builder, and extensive research on the area's early history.

The Front Porch Prophet by Raymond L. Atkins (Hardcover - Jul 1, 2008)
 
4.8 out of 5 stars (14)
SIMPLE SOUTHERN, CATHARTIC DELIGHT WITH A TWIST , December 14, 2008
  Victoria S. Abernathy 

The Front Porch Prophet
Written in Northwest Georgia terms, "Prophet" is at once amusing, sad,
healing, and full of the inevitable flavor that belongs to this region of
the foothills of the Appalachians. Salty language and a "slight" exaggeration here and there add to the charm of the book, and the ending (don't read ahead) leaves a satisfied glow long after the last page is read.

AMAZON Product Description
 
What do a trigger-happy bootlegger with pancreatic cancer, an alcoholic helicopter pilot who is afraid to fly, and a dead guy with his feet in a camp stove have in common? What are the similarities between a fire department that cannot put out fires, a policeman who has a historic cabin fall on him from out of the sky, and an entire family dedicated to a variety of deceased authors? Where can you find a war hero named Termite with a long knife stuck in his liver, a cook named Hoghead who makes the world’s worst coffee, and a supervisor named Pillsbury who nearly gets hung by his employees? Sequoyah, Georgia is the answer to all three questions. They arise from the relationship between A. J. Longstreet and his best friend since childhood, Eugene Purdue. After a parting of ways due to Eugene’s inability to accept the constraints of adulthood, he reenters A.J.’s life with terminal cancer and the dilemma of executing a mercy killing when the time arrives. Take this gripping journey to Sequoyah, Georgia and witness A.J.’s battle with mortality, euthanasia, and his adventure back to the past and people who made him what he is - and helps him make the decision that will alter his life forever.

Editorial Reviews

Product Description
 

When the charred body of a promiscuous, self-proclaimed witch is discovered at a farm called Sorrow Wood, nearly everyone in the sleepy town of Sand Valley, Alabama, is drawn into the case. As the murder probe continues, a multitude of secrets are revealed, including one that leads back to the rock castle home of Wendell Blackmon, Sand Valley's police chief, and his beloved wife Reva. The town's inhabitants ruminate on the true meaning of commitment, love, death, hope, and loss as they delve deeper into questions such as Who was this woman? Where did she come from? and What did her presence mean to Wendell, Reva, and the townspeople of Sand Valley?
