The Grand Circle Tour: A travel and reference guide to the American Southwest and the ancient peoples of the Colorado Plateau
The Grand Circle Tour is a circuit around a ring of National Parks and Native American sites in the Four Corners Region of the Southwest. It encompasses some of the most significant ancient history in North America: remanants of the Anasazi civilization. From the well-known sites like Zion and Bryce to the little known and well-preserved areas, Royea provides the kind of detailed guidance never before available in guidebook form. The Grand Circle Tour consists of two parts: Part 1 is divided into 14 days and visits 21 different sites, with an additional 20 sites covered that are nearby. The second part of the book has a timeline for the Anasazi. It's a history of Native American occupation of the Southwest from 10,000BC to the present day. The book can be used as a general travel guide or as the basis for an in-depth, historical tour. It is so filled with historical and cultural detail (complimented by photos, maps, and site plans) that it can even provide a satisfying armchair "tour" of the region.

Bismarck's First War
This book chronicles the final conflict over the now almost forgotten "Schleswig-Holstein Question", once a pivotal issue for the great powers of Europe. The campaign of Schleswig and Jutland was also the first of Otto von Bismarck's Wars of German Unification, which together created a united German Empire under Prussian leadership. The detailed story of this, the last of the "Cabinet Wars", is told here for the first time in English, compiled from numerous published and unpublished sources, including many contemporary and first hand accounts, as well as official reports. This is an invaluable resource for any student of the mid 19th Century. Key topics include: * The historical background t...
Jason and the Quest for the Ram with the Gold-Colored Fleece
The power of friendship, and a little magic, can overcome the most challenging obstacles. Jason, a ne'er-do-well 12-year-old, is hired to find the prize-winning ram with the gold-colored fleece, which has been stolen a week before the big fair. Accompanied by five of his closest friends, the group sets sail on what will become an epic journey. Or at least a good excuse to skip school. They face many perils along the way, including a giant serpent, strange beings that may or may not be gods of war, and deceitful humans. Once they locate the ram, Jason must perform an impossible task with the help of Melanie, his love interest who is also a witch. The crew encounter more dangers on the voyage home and realize that getting the ram was the easy part. Someone will pay a terrible price and experience betrayal as they return the ram to its rightful owner. The quest evolves from a combined will to succeed to a test of the endurance of friendship.
