At LAST! The long awaited Volume IV of CloudDancers Alaskan Chronicles is in your hands! As youll see inside, the wait was well worth it. After the gut-wrenching and soul-baring trip down the dark side of Memory Lane that was Volume III, The Tragedies, he needed some down time to recharge the creative batteries. Time to adjust to a new, better life and future, as a recovering alcoholic. Time to assess what had gone before, with an eye toward retaining what is best, and discarding those things in his past that hampered his ability to grow as a person and excel as an individual. The results speak for themselves! CloudDancer is back in the humor mode. Once again, this charming aerial miscreant falls in love with every airplane he flies and almost every girl he runs into. Youll be beside yourself with laughter sharing CloudDancers adventures in the air, on the ground, and under the covers! Youll meet CloudDancer the FELON! Hell introduce you to some of his favorite FEDs, and youll get the inside story of how he and his fellow pilots played cat-and-mouse with the boys from Fairbanks Flight Standards District Office 61, trying to stay one move ahead in their three-dimensional chess game. Finally, ride along as CloudDancer shows one of Americas biggest 1970s pop & folk music stars how the bush pilots do it! Our only worry is CloudDancer wont promise us there will be a Volume V! But, on the upside, our favorite wing nut has revealed there are exploratory talks in Hollywood to bring the Chronicles to a screen in your living room. With fellow author and pilot Stan Jones of Anchorage, CloudDancer has developed scripts for television and movie adaptations combining his brand of aerial mischief and suspense with Stans riveting Nathan Active series of Alaskan murder mysteries! If successful, were sure CloudDancer will find the perfect Aloha shirt to complement the mandatory black tuxedo for the Oscars and Emmys!

This study is an examination of 1965 intervention into the Dominican Republic by US forces, primarily from the 82d Airborne Division. Although this study covers the actual armed intervention and subsequent fighting between Dominican rebels and American soldiers, it also delves into the political and strategic reasons behind President Johnson's ordering the military action. As part of this political overview, the report addresses the role of the Organization of American States, the Inter-American Peace Force, and of several Latin nations who participated in the 18 month long intervention. As a part of his presentation, the author highlights the importance of many non-military roles and functions performed by key players to speed the Dominican Civil War to a negotiated close and bring the nation back on the road toward democratic government.

The essays and commentaries in this collection were presented at a Con ference on Problems of International Law in the Western Hemisphere, the Second Conference on Problems of Regional International Law under the joint sponsorship of the American Society of International Law and the Graduate Faculty of the New School for Social Research, April 2 & 3, 1971. Contributors have been given the opportunity to revise their papers since their original presentation. The editors acknowledge with gratitude the important contributions made by the Chairmen of the respective panels, namely, Professor Louis Henkin of Columbia Law School (Water Resources Panel), Professor Richard B. Lillich of the University of Virginia Law School (panel on Intervention) and Dr. Egon Schwelb of the United Nations (Human Rights Panel). The assistance of the Graduate Faculty of the New School for Social Research in the organization of the conference and that of the New York University Center for International Studies in the editing of these papers have been indispensable. We wish to make particular mention of the unstinting secretarial support of Ms. Donna Welensky and Ms. Judith Chazen. Certain problems would have been insuperable without the critical (in all senses) aid provided by Lyn Rodley. . The descriptions of contributors are those that obtained at the time of the conference. Since then, Professors Rovine and Rodley have moved to new pastures, the former to the Department of State's Office of the Legal Adviser, the latter to Amnesty International, while Dr.

All four books in James Quinn's 'The Redaction Chronicles', a series of cold war espionage novels, now in one volume! A Game For Assassins: It's the early 1960's - the height of the Cold War - and agents of the British Intelligence are being targeted by an unknown team of assassins. In desperation, the agency sends in their best agent to hunt down the killers. Jack "Gorilla" Grant isn't your typical secret agent. Uncompromising and rough-edged, he doesn't fit in with the elitist and debonair intelligence agents. Soon, Jack is drawn into a deadly game where nothing is as it seems, and even the perfect spy can die in a wilderness of mirrors. Sentinel Five: The Chief of the Secret Intelligence Service has been assassinated, and the British government brought to its knees by a terrorist organization intent on unleashing a weapon of apocalyptic proportions. In desperation, a deniable team is assembled to hunt down the terrorists. Called back from obscurity to lead them is Jack “Gorilla” Grant, a freelancer with a Smith & Wesson’ 39 and cut-throat razor, who is ready to even the score in his own brutal fashion. But in game where power players, traitors and terrorists work hand in hand, the most serious threats sometimes come from within. The Sentinel Five team turns their gunsights to the East, to Asia, and enter a killing ground of death. Rogue Wolves: He is known as The Master. Spy, double agent, freelance assassin. He has been at the top of his game for the past thirty years, and worked for Nazis, Communists, Intelligence agencies and terrorists alike. No one knows his true identity, and the intelligence networks of several countries want him captured, interrogated and “Redacted”. Jack “Gorilla” Grant, now a contract agent for the French Secret Service, is assigned the job of tracking the Master down. Hot on his heels is an equally deadly and beautiful CIA bounty hunter, who is more than capable of hunting down both assassins. From France to the heartland of America and finally to a death island off the coast of Mexico, Rogue Wolves takes the anti-hero Gorilla Grant into the deepest heart of espionage darkness. Berlin Reload: When Jack “Gorilla” Grant's daughter is kidnapped in Rome, it is just the opening gambit in a series of events that pushes him back into the “Redaction” business that he once walked away from. Unseen forces are moving against Gorilla and dangerous enemies from his past are threatening his future, intent on turning a cold war into a hot war. But Gorilla has one rule; don’t mess with my family. And he’s willing to kill to enforce it. From the dangerous streets of 1960’s Berlin to a hit contract in Austria, and finally to a race against time in East Germany, Berlin Reload is an epic cold war spy story that spans the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall, and throws James Quinn’s anti-hero Gorilla Grant into a mission where he may have to decide between the life of his daughter and the dawning of a new conflict between East and West.

A reference guide to all the elements of the Inter-American System from its formal beginning in 1889 to the present, as it developed into a major, multipurpose regional inter-governmental organization (IGO). The most notable elements in the current Inter-American System are the Organization of American States (OAS), the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), and the Inter-American Treaty of Reciprocal Assistance (Rio Treaty) Regime. Today, all 35 sovereign American states are members of the OAS. This book makes clear reference to the system's interrelationships with other IGOs and states outside the Western Hemisphere. Unique in its scope and approach to the subject, this work is intended to provide the reader with access to information on general as well as specific subjects. It is compiled with an interdisciplinary approach, and addressed to a variety of readers from students and scholars to professionals and government officials. With some 250 entries, cross-referenced and thoroughly indexed, this encyclopedia refers to membership and observers in the various organizational elements; policy orientations of the state members; treaties, conventions, protocols, declarations, and resolutions concluded over the years; concepts and doctrines underlying American regional organization; multinational principles and policies in major categories of activity; and cases of conflict and other situations undertaken by the system, including places, events, issues, and individuals notable for their contributions.
