The 2008 campaign for President of the USA has attracted more attention and prompted more people to get out and vote in caucuses and primaries than any other. It has also been kind of crazy: the initial line-up of contenders were a black man, a woman, an Italian-American, a POW held in solitary confinement for years, a millionaire Mormon, a Latino, a bass guitar playing former preacher and a Vegan who has seen a UFO. Vote for Me reveals what it takes to become president of the biggest democracy of them all. Written by Australian journalist and News Radio presenter John Barron, who happens to be a US politics junkie, Vote for Me is a fascinating, funny and, at times frightening, look at the way the USA picks its President. John speaks about Vote For Me! on YouTube
The bizarre case of the Walker family spy ring--the greatest breach of U.S. security in history--and the billions of dollars of damage it has caused. 8 pages of black-and-white photographs.
Operation Solo is America's greatest spy story. For 27 years, Morris Childs, code name "Agent 58", provided the United States with the Kremlin's innermost secrets. Repeatedly risking his life, "Agent 58" made 57 clandestine missions into the Soviet Union, China, Eastern Europe, and Cuba. Because of his high ranking in the American communist party and his position as editor of its official paper, the Daily Worker, he was treated like royalty by communist leaders such as Khrushchev, Brezhnev, and Mao Tse-tung. Through first-hand accounts, Operation Solo tells the story of the conflicts within the FBI and American intelligence about the operation, and how the FBI, through extraordinary measures, managed to keep that operation hidden from everyone, including the CIA. Operation Solo will appeal to movie audiences looking forward to Steven Spielberg's upcoming blockbuster movie, Bridge of Spies.

In August 1943, Sergeant Craddock leads his battle-weary platoon down Via Garibaldi in Catania, Sicily. Struck by the oppressive heat and their alien new surroundings, the men soon settle into this lull in their combat experience. The next few weeks take on a dreamlike quality as newfound relationships flourish and the war itself – let alone homelife in Britain – recedes into the distance. Against this backdrop, the second book of Alexander Baron’s War Trilogy meditates upon friendship, loyalty and love.
