The Court-Martial of General John Pope
Newcomer Steven E. Condon''s breakthrough analysis and novel presentation of one of Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson''s most celebrated Civil War victories, Second Manassas (a.k.a. Second Bull Run), is full of surprises. The list includes a mistaken mountain, a warning that never was, and John Pope''s supposed real plan for entrapping Stonewall Jackson-a plan that Condon claims could have worked, had it only been implemented as Pope had ordered it. No, "The Court-Martial of General John Pope" is not alternate history. And, no, the many startling insights and new discoveries within this book are not fictions, even though they are presented inside the framework of a fictional trial taking p...

Mission to Kill
Trouble follows the Garcia sisters, and this time a close family friend is in the hot seat. After Emily Ruiz Sanchez is killed in a shootout with police during a bank robbery in El Paso, Dr. Kate Garcia gets a call from a Houston lawyer. Seems the woman has left her sizeable inheritance to Kate and family friend, Benny Yates, who runs the Mission of Hope, a soup kitchen for the down and out citizens of Vineyard. The problem is—the Emily they knew lived on the streets of Vineyard and died of a drug overdose three months before. Suspicion falls on Benny when another homeless person drops dead at the Mission and he is listed as the beneficiary of the man’s recent life insurance policy. The Garcia girls go into sleuth mode once again to keep their friend out of jail, before they discover one of their own is also a suspect. But even with the trash-talking ghost of their dead sister Tessa making another appearance from the “other” side, they have their work cut out for them to keep their friend from spending the rest of his life behind bars and their sister from becoming the next victim.
The Duke of Kent
A refreshingly honest memoir about politics and private life Few Canadians have served their nation as well and as widely as the Honourable Darcy McKeough. He was elected Member of Provincial Parliament for Chatham–Kent, Ontario, five times between 1963 and 1977. In 1967 he was mockingly dubbed the Duke of Kent by an opposition MPP, a title he has worn as a badge of honour ever since. As Treasurer of Ontario, Minister of Municipal Affairs, and Minister of Energy during his time in office, McKeough fought to achieve budget surpluses long before it was fashionable, created regional governments that brought more efficient services to citizens, and attempted to tame Ontario Hydro. In The Duke ...
Generally Speaking
A commander of the Order of Military Merit and an Officer of the Order of Canada, Richard Rohmer's military career began in World War II, where he flew over the beaches of Normandy on D-Day, one of a tour of 135 missions for which he received the Distinguished Flying Cross. It was this service as a pilot that led to a unique meeting with Field Marshal Erwin Rommel. Sixty years later Rohmer was appointed the Chair of the Canadian government's D-Day Commemoration Advisory Committee. From negotiating the agreement that led to the McMichael Art Gallery, to lobbying the federal government to develop Canada's north, to re-organizing the militia, Rohmer has been at the centre of many diverse and wide-ranging events in the last half-century. He has flown with President John F. Kennedy, welcomed Queen Elizabeth to Juno Beach on the sixtieth anniversary of D-Day, and written biographies of E.P. Taylor and Peter Munk.
Roy Scheider
Over his 30-plus-year acting career, Roy Scheider has redefined America’s idea of a leading man, thanks to his talent for playing an urban everyman that audiences relate to and root for, despite flaws and failures. He rose to fame in the early 1970s in the Oscar-winning films Klute and The French Connection (his first Oscar nomination). Roy garnered more critical acclaim in Jaws and Marathon Man, as well as a second Oscar nomination for All That Jazz. Scheider’s life and career are chronicled in this work. Beginning with his childhood in New Jersey, it traces his development from a community theater actor to a world-renowned movie star, and covers his more recent work in the Golden Globe–winning RKO 281 and the Shakespearean drama King of Texas. Includes a complete filmography and index.
