  The first full-length biography of World War II general and Cold Warrior John Wilson "Iron Mike" O’Daniel, featuring "the very essence of the man… who spent more time under fire with his front-line troops than behind the safety of his office desk." — ARGunners.comJohn Wilson “Iron Mike” O’Daniel was one of the U.S. Army’s great fighting generals of the 20th century. He began his military career with the Delaware Militia in 1914, served on the Mexican border in 1916, received a Distinguished Service Cross in World War I, was Mark Clark’s man for hard jobs in the early days of World War II, and commanded the storied 3rd Infantry Division from Anzio to the end of the war in Europe, ending the war in Salzburg after liberating Munich, and Hitler’s Berghof and Eagle’s Nest on the Obersalzberg, Bavaria, Germany. “Iron Mike “commanded I Corps in Korea 1951–1952 and ended his career as the Chief of the Military Assistance Advisory Group in Vietnam in the early days of American involvement there.

  In April 1945, Linz was one of Nazi Germany's most vital assets. It was a crucial transportation hub and communications center, with railyards brimming with war materiel destined for the front lines. Linz was also the town Hitler claimed as home and had long intended to remake as the cultural capital of Europe, filling its planned Fuehrermuseum with world-famous art stolen from his conquered territories. 
   
   
    
  Inevitably, Linz was also one of the most heavily defended targets remaining in Europe. The airmen of the Fifteenth Air Force were a mix of seasoned veterans and newcomers. As their mission was unveiled in the predawn hours of April 25th, audible groans and muffled expletives passed many lips. The reality of that mission would prove more brutal than any imagined. 
   
   
    
  Drawing on interviews with dozens of America's last surviving World War II veterans, as well as previously unpublished sources, Mike Croissant compellingly relates one of the war's last truly untold stories—a gripping chronicle of warfare, the death of Nazi Germany, and the beginning of the Cold War. It is also a timeless tale of courage and terror, loss and redemption, humanity and savagery.

  There is one point that contemporary psychology and centuries old Eastern Buddhist and Taoist teachings agree on: if you wish to experience less suffering, you must change the way you see yourself. But what if the change that is needed is to let go of our selves entirely? What does this mean for those of us living in an increasingly self-obsessed and individualistic society? 
   
   
   
  In this compassionate and galvanizing book, Dr. Tom Davies gently invites you to consider the basic elements that define who you are. 
   
   
   
  ● In Part One, get to know your self. From the ground up, discover what the self truly is, how it links to identity, and how self-obsession is central to the human condition and the psychological pain that each of us experience. 
   
   
   
  ● In Part Two, overcome self-obsession. Free yourself from your psychological prison, and learn how to live the peaceful and joyful life that you deserve. 
   
   
   
  With a fresh and lucid style, Dr. Tom Davies combines his knowledge of the medical, psychological, and the philosophical to bring you real solutions to life's most challenging problems.

  The Seminole Wars, also known as the Florida Wars, were a series of three interconnected military conflicts that took place in Florida between the United States and the Seminole people, a group of Native Americans who had established themselves in the region during the early 1700s. These wars, spanning from 1816 to 1858, were among the longest and most costly of the American Indian Wars in both human and financial terms for the United States. Although the wars were not continuous, they involved intermittent fighting and long periods of uneasy ceasefire. The conflicts ultimately played a pivotal role in shaping the history of both Florida and the Seminole Nation.
