DOWNLOAD EBOOKAuthor provides vignettes, in detail, of how officers and enlisted men died, as well as the Indian perspective of the battle. The battle at Little Big Horn unfolds its drama more completely than ever before in this monumental work by the greatly respected and recently deceased Dale T. Schoenberger. The telling of the destruction of Custer's battalion is a masterpiece; not only do we see how the companies of his battalion perished, but we are also given vignettes, in intimate detail, of how the officers and several of the enlisted men died. Throughout the drama a number of so-called Custer truisms are refuted. Dale T. Schoenberger was not a man afraid of controversy. We see that Custer did have a battle plan; his horses were not tired; and Custer did not disobey his final orders.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKShortly after the turn of the century, my wife Terry and I moved to the mountains of Colorado. Shortly after that, I wrote this humorous book about our lives and how my hero wife lived in spite of the debilitating illness of MCS – Multiple Chemical Sensitivities. This book was mainly written to help us laugh in spite of our difficulties. In the meantime, you’ll get a closer look at how toxic chemicals affect the canaries (first to react) like Terry. And you’ll gain some insights on how to avoid them. Not only is Terry allergic to all man-made chemicals, she’s also allergic to several foods. Luckily she’s not allergic to plants or animals. Yeah, so you’ve got allergies – take a shot for them! Well except unless you’re allergic to the shot. And, they don’t make one for these allergies. So Terry lives with the severe face pain, the mind fog, the lack of energy. And she swears every time she’s out for a walk and somebody is doing their laundry with some fragranced detergent – her biggest bane. Sometimes she falters and doesn’t bear it well, but to me, she’s always a hero. This is her story. Enjoy!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBella Coola is a name that became familiar to millions recently thanks to a worldwide campaign to protect vast tracts of the region's rainforest and grizzly bear habitat under the banner of the Great Bear Rainforest, but despite the attention it has received, the area remains enigmatic to much of the outside world. In this magnificently illustrated book, long-time Bella Coola residents Hans Granander and Michael Wigle explore both the human settlements of Bella Coola country and the awe-inspiring wilderness that encircles them. Between the sea and mountains of British Columbia's Central Coast, fog shrouds 2.7 million hectares of largely old-growth forest, including a protected area twice the size of Yellowstone Park that harbours Canada's largest grizzly bears. The authors' brilliant images of the region's spectacular scenery and abundant wildlife show why it has been a magnet for world-class adventurers like Thor Heyerdahl and Sir Edmund Hillary for over a century.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe story of the air war over Western Europe, told firsthand by the American and German pilots and crew who took part—with never-before-published photos. What was it like to fly through the dense flak over the Ruhr and against the German Experten and to be hit by machine gun and cannon fire from Focke Wulf 190s and Bf 109s? How did so many badly damaged bombers manage to struggle back, against all odds, to their East Anglian bases? In this book, spanning the period between 1942 and 1945, many unique experiences are recounted from both the night and day bombing raids that were hurled against Hitler's war machine. Covering the encounters between the audacious Luftwaffe fighter pilots and the Fortress and Liberator bomber crews of the American 8th Air Forces flying from East Anglia, the author has sought the experiences of German fighter pilots, who explain how they stalked their prey in the sky over the Reich and how they pounced on their four engine victims from 12 o'clock high. With vivid accounts of some of the most heroic actions in the history of air warfare Clash of Eagles also contains many previously unpublished action photographs.
