Public Administration
The public sector today permeates much of society. This wide-ranging reach is distilled into a cogent overview of governing in the twenty-first century in the latest edition of Johnson’s acclaimed work. In a clear and engaging style, the author examines the public-private collaborations through which public policies are shaped, implemented, and revised. Throughout, he emphasizes the role of public administrators in forming and maintaining the partnerships that advance the goals of government. Johnson’s well-organized survey draws on both classic works and current issues in describing the organization and operation of American government. Abundant sidebars on current challenges like immigration, health care, disaster preparedness, homeland security, infrastructure investment, and data privacy offer valuable examples of public administration in practice and illuminate the collaborative nature of American governance.
White Savage
A dramatic, exciting and tragic book about the Irish fur trapper who held the fate of America and the British Empire in his hands. William Johnson began life as a poor Irish Catholic peasant. After converting to Protestantism, he emigrated to America where he became the leading fur trader in the British colony and one of its richest men.

When war broke out between the French and English, Johnson held the fate of the British Empire in his hands. If the Indians fought with the French, the British were doomed. A fascinating historical biography of this adventurous man, whose reinvention in the New World made him the first modern American.

In this collection, readers can expect a series of poems that draw inspiration from classical Greek mythology, philosophy, and culture. Cory, adopting the pseudonym Ionica to reflect his passion for Ionian Greek culture, likely presents verses that echo the timeless themes found in the works of ancient poets like Sappho and Anacreon. The title, "Ionica," suggests a thematic focus on the Ionian Greek tradition, known for its contributions to literature, philosophy, and the arts. Cory's verses may reflect a deep appreciation for the beauty of classical languages and the enduring relevance of Greek thought.
