If the zombie apocalypse happens tomorrow-how would you spend your last day? All Dr. Brianna Lewis wants is a cup of coffee. Coffee, to make slaving away in her cell culture lab at Green Fields Biotech a little more bearable on a Friday afternoon when everyone is home already. What she doesn't count on is a group of terrorists blowing up all the entrances to the building and taking her and a select few others hostage. Bree soon finds herself conflicted. Not only does she know their charismatic leader. She also starts to suspect that there is a lot more to this than the hunt for an illegal bioweapon-a virus that could potentially kill millions in just a few days-particularly as there is currently a flu epidemic raging across the country, and reports about violent behavior among the afflicted are getting more and more alarming.

From backpack to bicycle and now on a motorcycle, but still on a budget, the author, a compulsive traveller, embarks on a journey East from England with Mongolian intentions.

Riding a bargain eBay purchase Kawasaki KLR 650 and travelling solo into places beyond the guide book. A daily diary of achievements and mistakes incurred in a transient lifestyle, with mixed emotions from overawed to just plain bored, and making the best of decisions made while trying not to reflect on the alternatives. This is a refreshingly honest, thought provoking, humorous and informative account based on a lifetime of first hand encounters, anecdotes, wisdom and occasional alcohol induced inspiration. Offering an unavoidable wealth of experience which takes the reader with him, as the journey twists and turns on the road which the author hopes will lead him to greener grass.

In 1973, Howard Long wrote the president of California-based Western Growers-a powerful association representing half of America's produce suppliers-notifying them of his intent to sue because of restrictive lettuce shipping practices. Twelve months later, Long's challenge literally changed the way the industry did business. His victory marked the beginning of a long and prosperous relationship between McDonald's Corporation and his company, Coronet Foods: one of the world's largest suppliers of pre-cut produce to the fast-food industry. Fields of Green is the account of a man's vision and entrepreneurial drive that took him from a small town on the banks of the Ohio River to the heights of a world-class business with plants in five countries and over 2,000 employees. It is a poignant account of victory in a tough industry, Long's failing health, the demise of his life's work, and his sustaining faith in God.

It is August 1961, John Kennedy is president, and America is about to lose its innocence. On the west side of Evansville, Indiana, the Reitz High School Panthers football team practices in the heat of the day, led by their fierce coach, Earl Doggett, who chomps on antacids, never rewards for good behavior, and enforces hellish punishment for mistakes. Tony Reavis is an honor student and Eagle Scout who lives with his family in suburbia. Ray Moon lives with his divorced mother and seven siblings in a tiny shotgun shack on Pigeon Creek. Tony is college bound. Ray is destined for blue collar work. The only trait they share is a passion for pummeling whoever is unlucky enough to line up across from them on the football field. As the team works its way to becoming the only high school team in modern football history to play an entire season without allowing a point, President Kennedy is deciding the fate of Tony and Ray as he sends sixteen thousand young men to South Vietnam. Once There Were Green Fields is the tale of a history-making Indiana high school football team during the early 1960s as they battle on the field and in the jungles of Vietnam-all in the name of winning.
