Overview: The Haddock text features the successful author team Price et al. The author team based A Contemporary Approach on the solid foundation of the Price 12e textbook; however, in Haddock, the approach has been modified to fit the needs of a growing number of College Accounting instructors who teach the course without covering special journals. These instructors feel that special journals are an unnecessarily complicated subject for such a basic course. By eliminating special journal coverage, professors are free to focus on recording to the general journal and posting to the general ledger - the basic bookkeeping functions that are so important to accountants in the real world. Competing books have placed special journals in an appendix (Slater) or tried to separate special journal coverage from general journal coverage but retain both (McQuaig). Haddock is the only text on the market that eliminates special journal coverage completely (why make students pay for material they will not learn in the course?). With Haddock on the roster, instructor’s have a choice between a traditional approach that fully integrates special journals into the text in a succinct and logical way (Price 12e) or a contemporary approach that focuses on the basics and is more in keeping with where the course is headed in the future (Haddock 1e).

Operation Zero Hour is centred around a group of highly-trained freedom fighters from the Zimbabwe People's Revolutionary Army, (Z.I.P.R.A.) the military wing of the Zimbabwe African Peoples Union (Z.A.P.U) and members of the Rhodesian Special forces; The Rhodesian Light Infantry The Insurgent's mission is to infiltrate Rhodesia, from their base in Zambia and make their way towards South West Matabeleland. The freedom fighters base themselves in the Matopos National Park and, from this sacred Ndebele stronghold, launch attacks against the farming community in Marula with the aim of driving out the remainder of the die-hard European farmers, who have so far resisted any attempt to dislodge them. The success of their mission would determine the timing of the long-awaited plan of ZAPU to instigate the first phase of 'Operation Zero Hour' which will switch guerrilla insurgency to conventional warfare. The objective of 'Operation Zero Hour' is to confront the Rhodesian Armed Forces head on for the final battle to liberate Zimbabwe. Once achieved, the second phase of 'Operation Zero Hour' will be to eliminate the pro-Chinese ZANLA fighters, who currently control the north-east of Zimbabwe, under the command of Robert Mugabe, and secure total dominance over the entire country. The Guerrillas are led by a high ranking ZIPRA Commander Tshinga Mufumo who is driven by a deep sense of purpose and determined to fight for the liberation of Zimbabwe. Mufumo has recently returned to Zambia, following two years of intensive training in the Soviet Union, and sees the struggle for self-determination as the responsibility of all Zimbabweans. His success in Marula is essential in ensuring the necessary bridgeheads into Matabeleland are able to be established, once the farmers have been driven out of the area. The combatants under his command follow him without question and have no fear of the elite soldiers of the Rhodesian Light Infantry. They know they will eventually face the enemy in a battle to the death. Sent to reinforce defences in the Murula farming area are four soldiers of the Rhodesian Light Infantry. They are unaware of the concerns of senior army commanders and see their task as just another routine operation. However, they are soon to learn that the terrorists they have been sent to confront are, in reality, a group of hard-core guerrilla's ready to stand and fight on any terms. Corporal Mike Cameron, an ex-British soldier, leads the security force operation. Cameron has seen action in several theatres of war and displays all the qualities of a professional soldier; however, a run-in with the British Police regarding suspected arms dealings with the provisional IRA forced him to flee his native land and seek adventure in Rhodesia. On the other hand, Van Arden, an Afrikaner, bursts into the story as a soldier who has a passion for killing the enemy and takes great pride in keeping the mentality of a diehard Afrikaner alive. Shaun McIntosh, Scotty to his friends, was a former British and Commonwealth Boxing Champion. His final defeat was not in the ring but against his own demons. Allan DeWitt, Budgie to his friends, is on his first operational mission after failing to pass out of recruit training three times. He is soon to learn that war is a dirty business and bullets do not discriminate the colour of a man's skin. Soon the experience of battle turns him from a raw recruit into an RLI Commando. They are later joined by an African Soldier Trooper Horatio Solomon Phiri who transferred to the famed Selous Scouts after distinguishing himself with the Rhodesian African Rifles and brings much experience to the group. Each combatant has a story to tell of their fears, their motives, and what drives them to fight for their beliefs. Together the characters bring a rich combination of experience, loyalty, idealism and death.

Here are the Presidents of the United States like you've never seen them before...photorealistic portraits drawn by one artist, complete with a biography about each one.That's correct, 45 photorealistic hand drawn portraits of the men who held the office of the presidency along with an unfiltered and sometimes R-rated biography about each one. Most books about presidents are standard biographies with stock images. Artist John Price spent more than a decade drawing each one, painstakingly studying their wrinkly faces and rendering each one in almost realistic fashion.Why? Because, that's why.Does he have a degree in U.S. History? No, nor is he a presidential historian nor even met one. He's just an artist with no degree who admires the office of the president. He got on Wikipedia, donated $2 to their annual campaign and copied their articles verbatim. Well...not really. Each biography is backed up by reputable sources with some humor sprinkled in.Speaking of humor, if you're a lover of presidential portraits, art, history and biographies that are...well...a little bit explicit, then this is the book for you. It has it all-love, war, peace, and a ton of foul language guaranteed to make you laugh. Unless you're a prude. If you're a prude, you won't find this book funny, humorous, cute, or even worth your while. In fact, you'll probably write a negative review about it. Hopefully, even if you don't care too much for the humor, you'll learn something new, and admire the art behind it.
