New York: Random House, 2019. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. ix, [1], 346, [8] pages. A Note on Sources. Endnotes. Selected Bibliography. Index. This is the never-before-told inside story of the high-stakes, four-year-long investigation into Donald Trump's Russia ties, culminating in the Steele dossier, and sparking the Mueller report, from the founders of political opposition research company Fusion GPS. Fusion GPS was founded in 2010 by Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch, two former reporters who decided to use their reporting skills to conduct open-source investigations for businesses and law firms, and opposition research for political candidates. In the fall of 2015, they were hired to look into the finances of Donald Trump. The deeper Fusion dug, the clearer it became that the focus of Fusion's research going forward would be Trump's entanglements with Russia. Simpson and Fritsch engaged the services of a former British intelligence agent and Russia expert named Christopher Steele. He would produce a series of memos, which collectively became known as the Steele dossier, that raised questions about the nature of Trump's ties to Russia. On January 10, 2017, the Steele dossier broke into public view. Fusion GPS would soon be thrust into the center of the biggest news story on the planet, a story that would lead to accusations, conspiracy theories, lawsuits and the Mueller report. Before Ukraine, before impeachment: This is the never-before-told inside story of the high-stakes, years-long investigation into Trump's Russia ties, culminating in the Steele dossier, and sparking the Mueller report, from the founders of opposition research company Fusion GPS.

Glenn was a fourth-generation Coloradan, born in Fort Collins, Colo., on Sept. 11, 1926. Glenn graduated early, at age 17 to join the U.S. Navy and serve his country at war. He was on the USS Minneapolis CA-36, which earned 17 battle stars in World War II, the most of any ship in the war. Glenn stayed with the "Minnie" as occupation forces in Tsing Tao, China. After the war, Glenn attended the Colorado School of Trades and graduated as a licensed gunsmith. As an avid student of history and pilot, Glenn had a deep interest in the air war in Europe in WWII. He took writing classes at Colorado State University, where he was one of the only students to have his first effort at writing published in a magazine. After years of research, his first book, titled "Kriegies, Caterpillars and Lucky Bastards," was published and told the stories of the pilots and airmen who served in the 8th Air Force Bomb Group.

New York: Scribner, 2006. Uncorr Proof Edition. 257, wraps, map, timeline, stamps & ink note inside front cover and on title pageIllustrations are not present in this Advance Uncorrected Proof edition. Hours after two airplanes hit the World Trade Center on the morning of September 11, 2001, Charlie Vitchers, a construction superintendent, and Bobby Gray, a crane operator, headed downtown. They knew their skills would be crucial amid the chaos and destruction after thetowers fell. What they could not imagine--and what they would soon discover--was the enormity of the task at Ground Zero. Four hundred millionpounds of steel; 600,000 square feet of broken glass; and 2,700 vertical feet of building had been reduced to a pile of burning debris covering sixteen acres. Charlie, Bobby, and hundreds of other construction workers, many of whom had helped to build the Twin Towers, were the only ones qualified to safely handle the devastation. Everyone working the site facedthe looming danger of the collapse of the slurry wall protecting lower Manhattan from the waters of the Hudson River, the complexity of shifting tons of steel without losing additional lives, and the day-to-day challengeand emotional strain of recovering victims.

Indianapolis: The Bobbs-Merrill Company, Inc., 1968. First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. xi, [5], 286, [2] pages. DJ has some wear and soiling. Includes Dedication, Foreword and Acknowledgments, Notes, and Index. Chapters cover The "Sunrise Attack Order"; McLaws Analyzes the "Sunrise Attack Order''; Verbal Blast and Counterblast; Longstreet's Flanking Proposal; The Central Role in the Drama; Frontal Assault; Marching and Fighting with Garnett; Cushing's Battery and Armistead's Words; Pickett's Missives and Missing Report; Longstreet as a General; Grilling the Prisoner "Longstreet"; Raphael Moses Discusses Some Officers; Jeb Stuart's Futile Ride on Washington; Ewell Talks of the Battle; Lee's and Other Comments; Resume and Estimates. The author provides a fresh understanding of Lee, the man and the general, through recorded narratives and interviews with participants in the battles, reports that are often more spontaneous and enlightening than the Official Records of the Confederacy. The author illuminates the character of Lee's army through its individual leaders--the taciturn Lafayette McLaws; swift talking Jubal Early; newlywed Richard S. Ewell; sickly, red shirted A. P. Hill; dapper George F. Pickett, and others equally fascinating. Yet above them all was the strange interaction of Lee with the rugged fighter, Longstreet, long held in contempt for supposed slowness in meeting Northern action. But might not Lee, as the author suggests, have been remiss in communicating his invasion plans to his subordinates? The dramatic and sometimes contradictory behavior of the two Southern generals who dominated the battle is studied with care and candor. More

Herrin, Illinois: Mrs. S. Glenn Young, 1924. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Hardcover. The format is approximately 5.5 inches by 8.5 inches. 253, [3] pages. Illustrations. Biography of a Prohibition Agent and Klan raider; the book contains much pro-Klan rhetoric. Seth Glenn Young was born 1887 in Kansas. He made his early reputation as a Federal agent tracking down draft dodgers in the southern states during WWI. In 1920 he went to work for the Treasury Department's Prohibition Unit. Four months later he found himself on trial for the murder of bootlegger during a still raid. He was found not guilty but the agency fired him. Shortly after that, he was recruited by the Klu Klux Klan in 1923 to clean up the stills and booze problem in Williamson County. He made hundreds of arrests and led violent raids on people in their homes who only made wine, and from there it only got worse. He eventually went too far and even the Klan ejected him. Glenn Young and his second wife were fired upon from an automobile. His knee was shattered; his young wife was blinded by shotgun pellets. In 1925 at the European Hotel in Herrin, IL., Young met his death in a shootout with Ora Thomas. Thomas also died in the shootout along with two others. Glen Young’s funeral was an extravaganza with a church full of flowers and a long cortege; the service was concluded by reading of the Klan burial ritual by the light of a burning cross. It was followed by a procession of Klansmen in full Klan regalia down Herrin’s streets. Young’s body was placed in an imposing mausoleum in the Herrin cemetery. Over 15,000 Klansmen and Klan sympathizers attended his funeral, where he was buried in the purple robe of a Kleagle. More
