"Saving Primo" is the last of the book's four stories with the primary characters being J.D. Dickens, and his partner, Isaiah 'I-Hop' Hopkins. The story's intrigue involves a top-secret deal between the American and Canadian governments concerning an enormous oil pipeline that is being built through the Canadian Yukon and far into the U.S. and when Primo Canto, whose life had been saved by J.D. and his partner 18 months previously, phones them about his finding information for an environmentalist group that is against the clandestine pipeline deal even more vehemently since they find it also involves Russia when Primo finds proof that it also involves a secret underwater pipeline that will s...
Saving Primo
? Sandcastles in the Sun? is the first story in this series of four novellas featuring Julius '.J.D. ' Dickens and his partner Isaiah 'I-Hop' Hopkins. Dickens gets when his assistant, a 21-year-old first year law student, whose father, a police captain, is a close friend of J.D.'s, assures him that it's a simple ?open and shut case? paid for with department money. Now, Dickens has ?personal? reasons to take any case paid for with department money but soon finds that it's anything but and open and shut case. The Spearhead Case, ? ?A Heartbeat Away? and ?Saving Primo? are more of the same spine-tingling stories that will quickly interconnect with the one preceding it and keep the reading reading until the last page is turned.
THE HUMAN BEINGS
"THE HUMAN BEINGS" is a story written for children, of all ages, from 1-120. It is a story that sticks to the truth, as much as the imagination of any child can stick to the truth. The roots of the story come from the biblical Adam & Eve story and progress in a vein that is intended for little children, as well as all children, to learn how they must treat animals, as well as each other in order not just to be happy but even to assure the survival of the entire planet's population. It centers on the fact that both men and women, human beings, must get along, not only with each other, by not judging one another and engaging in war after war with each other but also with the animal kingdom and the fact that the human beings must learn how to live with every creature on earth because if human beings cannot even learn the simple truth that they must befriend and share the earth with their animal brethren than they will never be able to befriend and share the earth with human beings of a different skin color, country or religion.
Peace On Earth & Collected Plays
In Peace on Earth we see into both sides of a vicious, blood-curdling battle in the trenches of WWI, when poison gas, hand-to-hand combat and starvation still played a big role in wars between countries. In a true event, something that history verifies happened, we get a glimpse of what could have happened on that day on the Western Front, between two armies, and the human beings who discovered there humanity on that Christmas Day, in the year of Our Lord, 1914. In Muhammad's Revenge we see how the world can be, has been and will be again, changed in dramatically, historic fashion until it no longer is a world. And, in the Duke, we see into the life of a totally disreputable, thoroughly unlikeable character but whose traits we all recognize because that are not only those of someone we have known but traits that we ourselves have suppressed most our lives. In fact, the further we read, the more we realize that we, ourselves have some, maybe too many, of those same traits ourselves.
I AM AN AMERICAN
In "I Am an American" we get a flavorful mixture of poems: everything freedom, politics, destiny and religion to the fact that if there is one thing we can count on, besides death and taxes, it is that the sun, sooner or later, will come up.
Santa Claus, Satellites, Cellphones & Sinkholes
In Santa Claus, Satellites, Cellphones & Sinkholes in Spring Hill we see into the lives of a small Tampa Bay suburb and the lives of many of its residents. The author delves into many of the problems that confront it's residents almost daily, including such things as a large generation gap between many of the communities senior citizens and the millennial generation. Such things as cultural issues, religious issues, political issues; previous and present-day wars and revolutions and what they meant in the past and may mean in the future and government agendas pertaining to the enormous gap of wealth between societal groups are just some of those problems. Another larger problem turns out to ...
The Numbers Book
The Number Book is an attempt to teach anyone, who wishes to learn, how to learn their numbers and to learn them easily & thoroughly. Although this book is written with children in mind, anyone of any age should be able to learn how to write all these numbers and, thus learn basic arithmetic, at the same time by learning everything in progression, first how towrite the letters and then how to add them and, in so doing, to understand how the numbers can go forward simply by adding zeroes to them.
The Profit Factor
It's 1979 and Jimmy Carter's administration is seeing 21% interest rates. In the city of Sacramento, California, Gary Greb labors as a union carpenter but with a wife and two toddlers to support-and, as new construction is all but non-existent, he tries real estate sales; putting his knowledge of construction techniques and land-use to bolster his earnings, He quickly finds that one group-the excessively wealthy-are totally unfazed by the recessionary times and when he finds an engineer, with ties to people with unlimited funds, who will buy any piece of land at any reasonable price-for cash-he begins a career that will ultimately land him in prison, as well as turn him from the working class into a part of the wealthy landowners-a class he has come to disdain, distrust and dislike. If you never lived through these times in the 1970's and 80's, take heed and scrutinize today's headlines and economy and remember history has a way of repeating itself-and God only knows when the cycle will begin to spin again.
Cowboys and Indians
"Cowboys and Indians" is a look back into history and it explores the entire continent of America which was originally inhabited by Native Americans, none of whom had, or have ever, any familial ties to Amerigo Vespucci, the Italian explorer who was said to have discovered America. The theme throughout is the undeniable fact that the earth upon which we all live is being systematically strangled, drilled, poisoned, beaten and bartered to death. The undeniable truth shows us that the European immigrants had a philosophical difference with the Native Americans that they encountered living on the shores that they invaded and vanquished and always with the same thought in mind: to steal the land...
The Manly Art
The Manly Art is another collection of writer Keith G. Laufenberg's short stories, only this time with the defining factor being that they all involve the sport of boxing. Having been in the sport himself, beginning at age 17, when he entered Marine Corps boot camp, and ending after seven years, fought as a professional, he is afforded a closer more intimate look into the boxers lives. In "Sonny Liston's Eyes," the reader is taken into the Underworld of the sport when a writer interviews an ex-mobster-who is dying of lung cancer-and claims to have killed Sonny Liston, as well as JFK and Martin Luthur King Jr. He tells an incredible story but backs it up by saying he has absolutely verifiable evidence that he will produce for the writer. In "Frankenstein" we see why a young amateur boxer should have picked boxing over football. He has little say in the matter though as his father and uncle have trained him his entire life for football and it, along with the other stories, will keep you glued to the page.
