Not going to play with European problems. Not going to advertise it or promote it. You will read it or not, I am not going to get any profit on it.
The mightiest warrior in the land, Malek of Gath, prepared for his battle to the death--a duel with the champion of the opposing army.
The antecedents and aftermath of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and the role of the United States in international affairs.
These nine stories are first and foremost autobiographical. They are also true. In the early 1970's my parents decided to leave England in search of a more interesting life; fueled by a lifetime of adventure stories my father was desperate to see the world, to experience adventure and to see what little remained of real cultures before the bland cookie-cutter culture of the United States finally took hold.
For the next forty years my parents remained overseas choosing to live in some of the harshest environments and I was fortunate enough to be taken along.
We were not explorers, nor were my parents interested in being 'the first' at anything; but what spurred them on, what kept them going into their retirement, was the desire to not just simply visit distant lands, but to live there, to try as best they could to experience the daily lives of the people they lived amongst.
The stories in this small book are a snap shot of some of the things we saw and experienced. They are in chronological order starting in the early 70's in the Middle East and ending in 2006 in the Pamir mountains.
The history of four terrorist organizations in the Balkans and a general introduction to terrorism and freedom fighting.
Also includes essays about religious co-existence in the Balkans and about pathological narcissism as a precursor to terrorism.
