The Condo
According current theories of cosmology, it may be possible for human beings to pass through a black hole or wormhole to another universe. Some believe that the passage would crush our bodies; others agree with Roy Kerr who theorizes that we would survive, but the passage would be a one-way trip. The premise of my novel is that if we made it there, we could function quite well with whats left of us. Only trouble is, we would take with us all our imperfections and would still need to do something about wars, crime, greed, etc. Jasper Wergild, the main character of The Condo, buys an upscale condo unit in a gated community, where he hopes to relax, reconnect with his wife Marguerite and get aw...

On a school trip to England, her father's favorite haunt, Aggie is transported to Shakespeare's time and meets Catherine, the daughter of a Stratford glove maker.

The dangers include being accused of witchcraft and complicity in the Gunpowder Plot; the wonders take them to Shakespeare's theatre and a discovery that helps Aggie start a new life.
Occupied Economies
What were the consequences of the German occupation for the economy of occupied Europe? After Germany conquered major parts of the European continent, it was faced with a choice between plundering the suppressed countries and using their economies to supply its needs. The choices made not only differed from country to country, but also changed over the course of the war. Individual leaders; the economic needs of the Reich; the military situation; struggles between governors of occupied countries and Berlin officials; and finally racism, all had an impact on the outcome. In some countries the emphasis was placed on production for German warfare, which kept these economies functioning. New research, presented for the first time in this book, shows that as a consequence the economic setback in these areas was limited, and therefore post-war recovery was relatively easy. However, in other countries, plundering was more characteristic, resulting in partisan activity, a collapse of normal society and a dramatic destruction not only of the economy but in some countries of a substantial proportion of the labour force. In these countries, post-war recovery was almost impossible.
