Book Description
When I was growing up in New Jersey at about eight or nine years old, I use to watch World War I and World War II history documentaries on the PBS channel and would try to write down everything that the narrator was saying in a composition book. I enjoyed doing that and did it for about a year, but I soon moved on to other things that kids at that age enjoyed. Little did I know at that time that many years later, I would write and publish my first book titled “Vine Street.” I guess that the skill was always in me, I just didn’t know it. I was always fascinated with the movies from Hammer Film Productions, Alfred Hitchcock, and Stephen King, but one day I saw a movie that inspired me, directed by John Carpenter. That movie was “Halloween.” So, I came up with an idea for my first book, but it took another 35 years to get it started. I guess it’s never too late, and finally finished it. It has now been two years since my first book was published and I am excited about my newest creation titled “Somber Town.” All small towns have secrets, and this one is no different, but with a little twist. The genre I chose is suspense, thriller, and a little horror in between, but hopefully, the readers will enjoy it.

Girl, you'd better wise up and stop all that old timing stuff." In response, Lisa cocks her head to the side, echoes Marie's statements and asks, 'Old-timing stuff?' Since when do you call having good morals 'old-timing stuff,' my friend?" From those statements, the girls and the many other facinating characters introduced in the work speak openly and honestly about their hopes, fears and desires for love and happiness in a conversation revealing of every facet of the issue. The work traces the days of the weeks leading to Prom. Excitement and conflict is present on every page. The book shows a through analysis of solving conflicts between body, mind and spirit.

Afgantsy

Pages : 432
Book Description
The story of the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan is well known: the expansionist Communists overwhelmed a poor country as a means of reaching a warm-water port on the Persian Gulf. Afghan mujahideen upset their plans, holding on with little more than natural fighting skills, until CIA agents came to the rescue with American arms. Humiliated in battle, the Soviets hastily retreated. It is a great story-but it never happened. In this brilliant, myth-busting account, Rodric Braithwaite, the former British ambassador to Moscow, challenges much of what we know about the Soviets in Afghanistan. He provides an inside look at this little-understood episode, using first-hand accounts and piercing analysis to show the war as it was fought and experienced by the Russians. The invasion was a defensive response to a chaotic situation in the Soviets' immediate neighbor. They intended to establish a stable, friendly government, secure the major towns, and train the police and armed forces before making a rapid exit. But the mission escalated, as did casualties. Braithwaite does not paint the occupation as a Russian triumph. To the contrary, he illustrates the searing effect of the brutal conflict on soldiers, their families, and the broader public, as returning veterans struggled to regain their footing back home. Now available in paperback, Braithwaite carries readers through these complex and momentous events, capturing those violent and tragic days as no one has done before.
