Greg Walsh
GERG WALSH was an unusual, but highly effective, combination, a city educated academic who devoted most of his working life to 'the bush'. He championed what is to some urbanites a dead end.
Theft of the Age
The timeless ache of alienation is both the catalyst for creation of this work and the driving storyline within. It follows a boy and girl of high-school age, blessed and cursed with adult sensibilities, and each possessing a certain moral flexibility. Caring and vicious, insightful but immature, and confused but crystal-clear, they struggle and excel in equal measure and on parallel tracks. As they move towards an intersection that neither could have ever expected, everything surrounding them descends into chaos. Theft of the Age was written out of need for escapism, and out of desire to affirm to the reader that there are others out there who see below the surface, and are affected by the view.
Soundings in the Dark
Minneapolis P.I. Lyle Dahms investigates the murder of an old high school buddy. The dead man, now a highly successful software developer, is found repeatedly stabbed with swastikas carved into his corpse. Suspicion promptly falls on the dead man’s son, a high school student who had gone virtually overnight from star athlete and scholar to rebellious skinhead whose hate-filled diatribes spare no one, least of all his privileged, liberal father. Dahms soon discovers others with motives to kill his old friend, chief among them a white supremacist leader and publicity-hungry “minister” who frames his racist views as divine law. But before Dahms can close in on the truth, his investigation is hampered by the arrival of the dead man’s former girlfriend, now an embittered hooker. Claiming to know who killed his friend, she refuses to tell Dahms for fear that she will be the next victim. She does, however, leave him something. When she bolts, she abandons her three-year-old daughter to his care, leaving Dahms charged with keeping the little girl safe, finding her mother, and solving the murder before the killer can strike again.

A gang's-eye look at the 2006 Shedden Massacre, where eight men were slaughtered An account that lets Mario Parente go on the record with his story of the biker wars With frightening and compelling detail, Showdown lets readers experience firsthand the personalities and day-to-day workings behind the brutal and deadly rivalries that mark one piece of Canada's criminal underworld.

Red Sky at Morning
It's fleet week in New York City—but there are hungry sharks swimming among the welcomed guests... As thousands of foreign ships clog the great city's harbor, beneath the surface of the Hudson River a rogue armada of Chinese attack submarines is taking up position, ready to launch a blitzkrieg attack on the unprepared and unsuspecting populace. Tugboat captain Ken Hughes knows New York harbor as few other navigators do. Now, in the midst of chaos and terror-on a familiar waterway that has suddenly turned hostile and deadly he finds himself on the front lines of the baffle to free a hostage Manhattan. Time is running out for a city under siege as Hughes, sailing enthusiast Kate Ross, and a courageous handful of desperate citizens race to prevent an explosive destiny that could paralyze a nation and reduce an island metropolis to rubble.
The Alcalde
As the magazine of the Texas Exes, The Alcalde has united alumni and friends of The University of Texas at Austin for nearly 100 years. The Alcalde serves as an intellectual crossroads where UT's luminaries - artists, engineers, executives, musicians, attorneys, journalists, lawmakers, and professors among them - meet bimonthly to exchange ideas. Its pages also offer a place for Texas Exes to swap stories and share memories of Austin and their alma mater. The magazine's unique name is Spanish for "mayor" or "chief magistrate"; the nickname of the governor who signed UT into existence was "The Old Alcalde."
Young Eagle Standing
YOUNG EAGLE STANDING is a poem written by author Gregory S. Walsh in the summer of 1978 after his graduation from the University of Washington. Like many young people emerging from academic life into the world of work, Gregory found himself wondering which career, which adventure, would lead to the most creative life. By late August of 1978 he had no clue and sat down to express his frustration in writing. Young Eagle Standing is the culmination of his thinking at that moment in his life. A moment shared by millions of others who are perplexed by the choices that life presents. Some 25 years later Jean C. Walsh, Greg's mother, decided to turn his poem into an original work of art in book form. She designed and handcrafted each of the pages as well as the leather-bound and beade cover of the book (which measures 22" wide by 25" tall.) Now, 36 years after writing the poem, ten years after Jean's design of the book, Greg has photographed her artwork and turned the poem and illustrations into a hardbound book for people around the world to enjoy.
