This book shows how the first institution of global governance was
conceived and operated. It provides a new assessment of its
architect, Eric Drummond, the first Secretary-General of the League
of Nations, appointed a century ago. The authors conclude that he
stands in the front rank of the 12 men who have occupied the post
of Secretary-General of the League or its successor, the UN. Part 1
describes his character and leadership. His influence in shaping
the International Civil Service, the 'beating heart' of the League,
is the subject of Part 2, which also shows how the young staff he
appointed responded with imagination and creativity to the
political, economic and social problems that followed World War I.
Part 3 shows the influence of these early origins on today's global
organizations and the large scale absorption of League policies,
programmes, practices and staff into the UN and its Specialized
Agencies.
Burley found that the books on money either went one of two
ways. They were either too technical that once you were done
reading them, you had to do a bunch of research in order to even
begin, or they were very motivational but didn't tell you what to
actually do. Money Secrets Of The Rich strives to be a book
that does both.

Choose Me From the award-winning author of The Absence of Mercy
comes a chilling psychological thriller about a family and
community divided by tragedy, and the dark secrets that will set
their town aflame. When Erin Reece left Wolf Point fifteen years
ago after graduating high school, she'd planned to never set foot
in her childhood hometown again. But an urgent phone call from her
father's doctor leaves Erin with no choice but to return to a place
filled with painful memories and wounds that never closed. Two
decades ago, people in Wolf Point started disappearing without a
trace-including Erin's mother-and no explanation was ever found.
It's been years since the last disappearance, but the town is still
steeped in suspicion and haunted by the ghosts of the missing. No
one is thrilled to see Erin back, including her former best friend,
Robbie, who has changed from a spirited, fearless boy to a
reclusive shut-in. Then a body is discovered, buried in a makeshift
grave for years . . . on the Reece family's land. The police reopen
their investigation, and the evidence against Erin's father is
damning. After such a long time without answers, the community
wants justice. It's up to Erin to clear her father's name, but the
path to the truth will force her to unearth long-buried secrets and
confront a terrible evil. Because in Wolf Point, everyone knows
more than they are letting on . . . "John Burley has an eye for
detail, a feel for story, and a deep sympathy for his characters."
