The Captives of Abb's Valley the Massacre & Captivity of Settlers in Virginia by Indians, 1786
In The Captives of Abb''s Valley, James Moore recounts a harrowing and deeply personal tale of survival on America''s turbulent frontier. Set against the backdrop of the late 18th-century wilderness, this narrative chronicles the brutal attack on a small Virginia settlement and the subsequent captivity of its survivors by Native American warriors. Moore''s firsthand account, enriched by family records and local history, provides a vivid and unflinching portrait of the perils faced by early American pioneers. Beyond the bloodshed and hardship, the story grapples with themes of endurance, cultural collision, and the resilience of the human spirit. Moore''s work captures not only the violence of the era but also the complexity of frontier relationships between settlers and indigenous peoples. A gripping testament to fortitude and survival, The Captives of Abb''s Valley remains a vital piece of early American historical literature, illuminating a dramatic and often overlooked chapter of the nation''s past.

Bush's War For Reelection
A news-breaking exposé of the Bush administration''s rush to war, from the coauthor of the New York Times bestseller Bush''s Brain In this exclusive behind-the-scenes account, veteran journalist James Moore reveals how the overthrow of Saddam Hussein was a key goal of the Bush administration from the very beginning-and a critical component of the president''s reelection strategy. Drawing on high-level sources inside the administration and the military, Moore weaves together a multifaceted narrative that probes the political underpinnings of the administration''s push for an Iraq war, exposes efforts during the war (and after) to manipulate perceptions of U.S. military success, and contrasts it all to the ultimate price paid by soldiers duped into believing they were fighting for a just cause, not for political gain. Moore takes us inside strategy meetings at the White House and the Pentagon, revealing the political calculus behind critical military decisions. He examines the administration''s unprecedented efforts to control an d withhold information, including in-depth discussions with Joseph C. Wilson, husband of Valerie Plame, the CIA operative allegedly exposed by Karl Rove. Moore also gives us an uncensored view of combat in Iraq, reporting opinions of a senior Air Force source and troops on the ground; he shows how the war''s first American casualty actually died, and reveals what really happened to Jessica Lynch''s unit. Finally, Moore uncovers what might be in store if Bush wins reelection: the use of Iraq as a forward base in the fight against terrorism, and where the war may go next. Publishing at the height of the presidential election season next spring, Bush''s War for Reelection is sure to be one of the most talked about books of the year.

And with it comes a murder of crows casting a shadow on each house, one by one.

Pigeon Guided Missiles

release date: Aug 31, 2011
Pigeon Guided Missiles
During the Second World War, an American behavioural psychologist working with pigeons discovered that the birds could be trained to recognise an object and to peck at an image of it; when loaded into the nose-cone of a missile, these pecks could be translated into adjustments to the guidance fins, steering the projectile to its target. Pigeon-Guided Missiles reveals this and other fascinating tales of daring plans from history destined to change the world we live in, yet which ended in failure, or even disaster. Some became the victims of the eccentric figures behind them, others succumbed to financial and political misfortune, and a few were just too far ahead of their time. Discover why the great groundnut scheme cost British taxpayers £49 million, why the bid to build Minerva, a whole new country in the Pacific Ocean, sank, and why the first Channel Tunnel (started in 1881, over a century before the one we know today) hit a dead end.

Party Crash Your Career & Life

Party Crash Your Career & Life
At one point in our lives or another, we have all had the experience of wanting to try our hand at something we have no business trying. Whether it’s striking out on a new career path or asking someone out who’s out of our league, many of us know what it’s like to find our way barred before we’ve even set out. But even without the requisite qualities, skills, or street cred, we can still make our dreams come true. How? By simply refusing to wait for an invitation! In this original work of nonfiction, career keynote speaker Allan James Moore argues compellingly for crashing life’s parties you feel you should be in but have not been invited to and probably never will. Part memoir and part self-help, Party Crash Your Career & Life shows how making your own opportunities and carving your own path—regardless of your experience, reputation, or credentials—leads to both personal and professional success. Drawing both on his own personal experience—from trying out for a professional soccer team to a stint as a Mandarin interpreter and translator, to his eventual success as a keynote speaker delivering speeches across the globe—as well as a wealth of examples drawn from the worlds of sports and entertainment—from Steve Nash to Susan Boyle—Moore demonstrates the power of party crashing your way into the places, relationships, and positions of your dreams. "Party Crashers" reminds us that you don''t always have to be invited if you have the work ethic and preparation to crash the demands of the party. Moore recognizes that a lack of invitation can be a test to overcome rather than an absolute rejection and leads us to live a life without regret. Kasia Gruchalla-Wesierski, B.A.(PSYC), OLY Tokyo 2020 Olympic Champion 2024 CAN Fund Recipient "I’ve known Allan for almost 30 years, and this book is a perfect reflection of his journey—creating his own opportunities and breaking through barriers when others would have quit. It’s inspiring, practical, and packed with wisdom you can apply right away. If you’re ready to take control of your future, this book will show you how to make it happen." Dr. Jeff Bartlett BackFit Clinic “Allan has brilliantly painted what it means to be a party crasher — and the promise it holds to transform the way you approach work and life. His inspiring stories and practical strategies will ensure you stop waiting for the opportunity, get into bold action, and live a life without regret!” Carol Schulte, M.A. B.F.A. Keynote Speaker | Executive Coach Founder of The Brave Initiative Building Braver Leaders and Cultivating Braver Cultures. "The stories are fantastic! It''s a great message and a fun read" Hugh Culver, M.B.A., Business Coach | Entrepreneur | Keynote Speaker Past President of the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers Association

Investing for Beginners a Short Read on the Basics of Investing and Dividends
" Most people believe that the true key to becoming ultra-wealthy lies in some sort of "secret," a kind of well-kept secret that''s extremely "hush-hush," and only realized by a small amount of the elite, or a privileged few. But, actually, this isn''t the case at all. In fact, these super-rich individuals realize that their money needs to work for them and so they learn how to take what are known as "calculated" risks. The super-rich are definitely not psychics, nor do they have a "magic" secret that they hold close to their own kind. In fact, their real secret lies in the fact that they know what simple investing mistakes should be avoided. And, in truth, these mistakes are common knowledge, even among those investors who are not particularly wealthy at all. Investing properly is a guided, purposeful tool for building and adding to wealth, but it is not only for the rich. Actually, anyone can get started quite easily, and there are multiple avenues that make it easy to begin, with small amounts to start up a portfolio. Additionally, what differentiates using investment (as opposed to gambling) is that it takes a period of time for the "magic" to happen. Therefore, it is not a get-rich-quick scheme, at all. I want us to be clear on that point from the get-go. By the end of this book, you''ll have a great understanding of what investing is, and you will know how the magic of compounding works too. We''ll take a look at other options that you might find useful, so then you''ll have the knowledge you need before you get started with your own investing. Again, thank you for joining me here; it''s my pleasure to guide you through this important information. I believe that knowledge is power, and I hope that you''ll feel more comfortable once you get the real gist of how it all works, and how it can work really well for you. "
