With a degree in History and a deep interest in all things military it is
not often that I learn something new and amazing. For example, who would have guessed that the United States military's first target in World War 2
were the French!
That is just one of the many revelations in Bidwell Moore's, Steel Shards. Through Captain Kimbro Sawyer we learn
a great many things about the real lives of the people swept away by the greatest event of the 20th Century. |

Return to My Native Land by Ian C. Dawkins Moore is the
story of his voyage searching for his true identity. Those of us that lived through the seventies remember it as an age of seeking self-awareness.
Mr. Moore has a distinctive outlook and approach that makes his writings both amusing and thought-provoking. His words stir the recesses of the
mind causing the reader to ponder the scene and the situations. |

Moore’s vast knowledge of Hawaii and Japan (he lived for
a time in both locations) and his experience as an assistant military attaché give the book an authentic tone. His fast-paced narrative, while
engaging, switches points of view so often that the plot is sometimes choppy and difficult to follow. Taken as a whole, however, The Black
Pearl is an intriguing and enthralling tale of pre-World War II life in Hawaii. |

In America: Culture Shock, Ian Moore has
summoned all his memories of past adventures in travel -- memories from the days of a young man exploring the world to his return to America.
Ian speaks to us of world diversity that spans the globe. He explains the price of greed and in poetic form; the land once possessed. |

Fresh Garbage is the off-the-wall product of a
collaboration between David Baughn and Craig Muckler, both veteran comedic horror film writers, who bring the world of the grotesque to the
world of the mundane. An irreverent look at modern American television, the book employs satire within satire to expose the ubiquitous
entertainment/information media for the “garbage” it really is. |
