"Sooner or later they'll catch you," could be the theme of this book on murderers, rapists, and other bad people who have been chased down and brought to justice, like John Wilkes Booth, or buried as an "unknown," like young Joey Spears, in the forword, or in some other way handled, like Bonnie and Clyde, who were shot to pieces or Ted Bundy, who died in the electric chair. It is difficult to even imagine why an unthinking parole board will turn these killers loose to murder and rape and kill again, but it happens often. And, please be careful out there, it will happen again.

It was the duty of every captured prisoner of war to attempt to escape. Escaping meant the enemy had to tie up time and manpower to recapture the escapee. This meant that even as a prisoner of war, you still had a chance to effect the outcome. You were, in fact, still in the battle. If you were recaptured you generally suffered a few days in the "cooler," in solitary confinement. Until Adolph Hitler sent down orders to execute escaped prisoners who have been recaptured, escaping was a battle of wits. Usually you lost and were returned to prison. Sometimes you died. But occasionally you made it all the way home. The stories in this book are about prisoners who refused to stop trying, who became thorns in the side of their enemy. This book, dedicated to them, tells their story.

There are seven women who will never be forgotten, according to this author. They are the epitome of everything in entertainment, in politics, in medicine, and in charity and good will. Some became wealthy, some spent a life in poverty, but each one of the seven accomplished great feats in science and leadership. And in other fields such as entertainment, in the case of Marilyn Monroe. Should she be in a book alongside Mother Teresa and Joan of Arc? This akthor feels she should. You decide.

The Indianapolis Speedway Race is the most exciting one of all, held on the largest track in America, with the most in-attendance fans, and the largest TV audience of any sporting event anywhere, anytime. It is a dangerous, challenging race that is the most important one of all to win for the drivers. If you win at Indy, your future is assured. You are famous. You will get sponsors and you will be paid to advertise products. An Indy winner is set for life in this sport. Fans know this, and cheer on their favorite drivers. But this race is dangerous, and many drivers have lost their lives attempting to win at Indy. They seem somehow to go "over the line" at Indy, as Rick Mears does in this book, in an effort to win. Real fans want them to try harder and harder to win, but real fans don't want any driver or spectator to be hurt, or worse. So real fans cheer when Mears goes high into dangerous territory on the track, rather than low where the risk is less. Every fan should see this race in person at least once.

David Zaid survived the extermination of the Jews in Poland ordered by cruel German dictator Adolph Hitler. He went on to become a hero in the Israeli army. His voice is now stilled, but with this book he continues to speak out against the holocaust-deniers who insist that the atrocities, the death camps, the routine executions of Jews, never really happened. Zaid lived through it, lost his entire family to an uncaring German firing squad, and knows the truth. And if he ever questioned his own courage while hiding from the murderous Nazis and the equally murderous Polish farmers in a Polish forest, the questions were answered in the Israeli wars where he fought in hand to hand combat for his new homeland. He survived once again and saw his final dream come true when he, his wife and two sons, became citizens in the United States, his final and most beloved homeland.

Bridges hanging on wires? Tunnels under rivers? Raceways two miles long? A football field that has a roof? A dam that holds back a raging river, and provides power? These and more were thought to be impossible, but they were built by some of the very few construction genius builders born every generation who refuse to believe in "impossible" projects, and go ahead and build them. In this book are the first, when today's construction science was not available and when most people felt such massive projects couldn't be done. They were done. Man has landed on the moon, but this was the first time. And they built a great arch. And they carved a mountain top. And more.

This is the true story of the famous Lost Dutchman treasure as this author sees it, and offers a completely new theory on the location of the massive treasure. This location is within a stone's throw of the thousands of tourists who visit the forbidding Superstition Mountain area every year to have fun and to "find the Lost Dutchman." For the past one hundred years or so, they have no idea how close they might have been. A map? Yes. Read the book. The hand drawn map created by an old timer who says he has seen the gold with his own eyes is available, and almost free.

They are gone now, but each left a mark that will never fade.

Dr. Kalani G. Jose, a former sailor in the United States Navy, became a chiropractor out of necessity. He had a head on collision with a concrete wall while working as a truck driver, was badly hurt with a broken back, and was told by his MD's that he would "never walk again." Today he rushes around his super modern medical facility, where his staff of MD's, medical experts, office helpers, chiropractors, and others, are on his staff, and all because of a chiropractor. In spite of misgivings, Dr. Jose finally went to a chiro after his crash, and he was helped beyond his dreams. He was walking, and chose chiropractics as the "magical" career he wanted to pursue. Now he is one of the best known, and most successful chiropractors in the business, with modern offices, a very skilled staff, and a ranch on his home state of Hawaii, where he plans to retire. But the Kalani chiropractic offices will remain open in Oxnard, California, and perhaps in other cities around the nation.

What does a chiropractor do for you? Dr. Kalani Gusman Jose, a chiropractor with many years of experience and thousands of satisfied patients, and a man who plans to change the face of health care, tells all in this book on himself, his practice, what to expect when you schedule a visit, and his own love of his profession. He had a terrible accident as a young truck driver, and turned to a chiropractor after medical doctors could no longer help with the intense pain he was suffering. As a former athlete, he was desperate to prove the doctor who said, "You will never walk again," was wrong. And he did walk again, and in fact he was so caught up in chiropractic care that he became a D.C. himself, and now his unique practice of what he thinks is a "magical" profession is fascinating, and very educational. Yes, Kalani Jose could "change the face" of health care with his different approach to a type of patient care that is growing rapidly as more and more M.D.'s refer more and more of their patients to him.

The "Indy 500" is the most exciting auto race, on the most famous track, before the largest in-attendance audience for any sporting event ever in history. Every driver wants to win this event, assuring him or her fame forever and probably a huge amount of money as well. Drivers at Indy seem willing to take that "extra chance" to win, such as Rick Mears did in his chapter in this book by going high into even more danger instead of the low, less risky line on the track. The author has driven on the track at the Speedway in a race car, and has covered the race more than forty times as a reporter. The 500 is, he admits, one of his favorite topics about which to write in his over 200 book career, and he has written several books on this subject. He always looks forward to it every year on Memorial Day, either at the track or on television. He advises that everyone should see this great race in person at least one time, but that it is possible you can see more of the event on television.

Even modern science admits that in the future, hundreds of years from now, most people will have the ability to move things with their thoughts, and do many other wonderful things. You won't have to say, "pass the salt, please," you will just "think" the salt shaker to come across the table to you, and it will. Right now, we are on the very edge of this great power. We know the basics, covered in this book. And sooner or later, one of us will learn how to cure cancer by thinking about it. We'll just order it, or heart disease, or other ailments, to "go away," and it will. Even science now agrees that the "think system" con of "professor" Harold Hill, in the great show "The Music Man," will really work. Hill saw it as a scam, but we learn in this book that it is real, and will eventually be a part of our lives. Hill's rag-tag band shocked everyone, especially Harold Hill himself, when they played an almost recognizable rendition of "Minuet in G." Read this book to see how they did it, and how you can do it.

Hockey is a hard-hitting, beautiful, bloody, exciting, bruising,stunning game and at the top level it is a ballet.

In most of those rinks, their names are displayed high up in the rafters, and most of them have their names engraved on one of the rings of the famous Stanley Cup. This book tells of their lives, their love of their game, and where they are now.
