  I first met Mike Pinder when the interview you are about to hear was conducted in the mid-1990s.  Tt was generally known that Mike was very spiritually evolved and able to mirror his deep realizations through his incredible music both as a solo artist and with the Moody Blues. As an interviewer, I was taken by the sincerity, depth, and breadth of his knowledge and wisdom. Pinder gave freely the benefit of his unique understanding of life through the music that so effortlessly flowed from within.There was an incredible honesty about the man which gave everything he said a moral authority and simple truth that was quite amazing. Without ever posing as one Mike was a very high spiritual teacher.  What you will hear is an incredible document of not only the early history and success Mike Pinder achieved as a musician and composer but also the deeper aspects of living a true spiritual life amidst the material maelstrom.Mike was in many ways the soul of The Moody Blues, a progressive band of brothers that touched so many. Fortunately, he has left behind a huge portion of his great spirit within his indelible and enlightening music and words. This audiobook is a tribute of the triumph of true spiritual life made manifest within the context of this rare and wonderful musician composer and philosopher.Here Pinder speaks for himself from the vantage of a life well lived centered upon the deepest from within the soulful core of this wonderful being. His music and philosophy will live long. Mike's inspirational travels continue. Geoffrey Giuliano, 2024

  In his own words, the war of the doubly pioneering Lt Col Gerhard L. Bolland—82nd Airborne paratrooper on D-Day and senior OSS field operative on Operation Rype.Unconventional warfare tactics can have a considerable effect on the outcome of any war. During World War II, the United States government developed and employed two new methods of fighting. The first was the development of "paratroop" units, as they were first called. The second was the formation of a covert and sabotage operations branch called the Office of Strategic Services (OSS). Lt. Colonel Bolland was involved in both of these "firsts." During the D-Day invasion he parachuted behind enemy lines, jumping out of the 82nd Airborne lead aircraft with General James Gavin. After fighting with the 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment for thirty-three days straight, he returned to England and became involved with the OSS Scandinavian Section. He served as Field Commander for their Operation, code named Rype. This was the only American military undertaking, albeit covert, in Norway during the entire course of the war.  As a young boy growing up in rural western Minnesota, Bolland got his military start with the Minnesota National Guard, before being accepted to West Point, solely on merit. His military career lasted seventeen years. Lt. Colonel Bolland ended up with numerous decorations including the Norwegian Liberation Medal and Citation, the Bronze Star for valor, the French Fouragerre of Croix de Guerre with Palms and posthumously the Congressional Gold medal awarded to the OSS Society on behalf of all former OSS members that served during the war.  His story reveals the struggles, successes, failures and ultimate victories, detailing what went right and what went wrong with these new unconventional methods of fighting.

  From the flag-draped presidential box, Abraham Lincoln watched the popular comedy on stage at the Ford Theater. As he laughed at a funny line--Bang! A single shot rang out from a small derringer, the sound barely audible over the laughter of the crowd. Abe slumped forward, blood running from behind his left ear.When President Lincoln died the next morning, the United States mourned as it had never mourned before. An assassin had killed the man who had led Americans through the bloody turmoil of the Civil War with an unswerving commitment to rebuilding a strong and united country.Abe Lincoln had never set his sights on becoming president; after all, he'd grown up in a log cabin on the frontier and had hardly any formal schooling. But as the quesion of slavery threatened to destroy the United Sates, this self-taught lawyer with a sharp mind and passion for justice found himself at the center of the greatest debate the nation had ever faced

  The epic Battle of Iwo Jima is recounted through the stories of twenty-eight American soldiers who showed uncommon valor during one of WWII’s most bitter conflicts. When the smoke cleared on Iwo Jima in March of 1945, nineteen-thousand American Marines had been wounded and seven-thousand were dead, a casualty rate of nearly thirty-nine percent. Lasting over a month, Iwo was the Marines’ bloodiest battle of the Second World War and the only Pacific battle in which a U.S. landing force suffered more casualties than it inflicted. It was also the most highly decorated single engagement in Marine Corps history.  This volume captures the bravery of those who fought in that epic battle through the stories of twenty-two Marines and five Navy personnel who received the Medal of Honor in recognition of their gallantry under fire.
