This story tells about the life and experiences of a young man, our narrator, who grew upin a small-town in America. A biography of this townie (as we will call him) is not intended in thisstory. He will be treated by the author as a fictional character, Roger Williams, although thisyoung man did experience most events in the story. The parts of the story which are fictional areinterwoven with actual events in order to connect events within the sequence of the story and inthe order that they occurred. Hopefully, the fictional parts will be indistinguishable from theother.The young man, his service associates and a few fictional cohorts, were the participantsin this most remarkable story about conditions of battle within the course of the Cold War and theallied western nations intelligence services operations that were centered in Berlin, WestGermany.In the small town home of this man, he was separated from U.S. national politics andmost world events by distances, community-attitudes and his own immaturity.

Bachman's fourth book of poems, illustrated by the fine watercolors of Ann C. Colley, is a labor of love for the Adirondacks, where he and his wife canoe, hike, climb, enjoy fellowship with friends, and soak up the beauty. In this book Bachman animates nature in his most effective way yet. Loons soar, dive, yodel, wail; trees become living, animate presences--sometimes beautiful, sometimes monster-like and threatening; mountain trails and summits become arenas where beauty and awe tear at the eye and emotions: all part of the eons-old cycle of life.
Since the invention of management over a century ago, it has gradually become detached from the day-to-day operation of the organization and from delivering value to customers.Conventional wisdom is that managers set targets and then create systems to monitor, measure and control the execution of these targets. These systems include budgets, performance management, incentives and appraisals, which are used to exercise control and ensure that targets are met.

Highland Haven follows Sam Jackson on his leap into the unknown by applying for a mystery job vacancy. This takes him to one of the most beautiful yet rugged regions of Europe; the Scottish Highlands. His task is to convert the ambition of a wealthy entrepreneur into the reality of creating a unique self supporting community in this otherwise barren land. Whilst this fictional scenario, set in an actual Scottish glen, introduces new social and political ideas, the prime theme is punctuated by diverse dramas created by climatic conditions; much skulduggery; and international smuggling. Additional colour to the narrative is provided by well informed word excursions by land, sea, and air, through and over this fascinating region. A real taste is gained of the unique character of life in this harsh, yet stunning terrain. This story has something for everyone: armchair tourists; crime and mystery buffs; environmentalists; even budding engineers and managers. An unusual composition with much intrigue and excitement.
