THE TRAUMA TRAP
“If you have been traumatised or know someone dear to you that has, this is probably the best book you will ever buy…this book actually provides treatment, not where to get it or how. I share with you the technique I have been using in my PTS unit for 22 years. The success rate with my patients is in the order of 90%. No treatment offers 100%. The kind of traumas I have dealt with are: manmade: abuse, rape, …burglary, combat, genocide and natural disasters: floods, earthquakes, fire etc…”
Tight Lines
”"Tight Lines" contains much of the same information found in Roger's book "Secrets of Trout & Bass Fishing Revealed", with the addition of Two+ Chapters specifically related to fishing in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. It contains detailed maps and descriptions of virtually all the lakes, ponds and rivers in these two states, with the locations of the known "holes", stocking info. etc. …a must have for anyone who plans to fish in either of these two states. “

The Last Election
from review: " the events in this story centers around the final presidential election in the United States before the alleged end time of 2012. There is a lot of action and parts of it almost had an Indiana Jones feel, with archeology and ancient prophecies and mysteries. The plot was wonderful, but I really felt like the characters drove this story."
