Burkett is a retired Army officer and financial advisor. He is best known as co-author of Stolen Valor (1998), written with journalist Glenna Whitley. It received the Colby Award for military writers in 2000. Burkett says he decided to write the book now known as Stolen Valor after hearing too many news reports about Vietnam veterans characterized as mentally unstable. Burkett began fact-checking whether such identified people were veterans by applying for their military records through Freedom of information process. Burkett says he checked over 3,500 people's claims to have served in Vietnam, and found 1,700 of them had fabricated their stories. It has been credited for inspiring the Stolen Valor Act of 2005 passed by Congress, making it a crime for an individual to falsely claim to have been awarded military medals. In 2005, Burkett co-authored a paper with B.C. Frueh, J.D. Elhai, and J.D. Monnier that was published in the British Journal of Psychiatry. It focused on concerns "regarding the validity of combat exposure reports of veterans seeking treatment for combat-related post-traumatic stress disorder".

The subject of three segments for TV newsmagazine “20/20,” including one that won a CINE Award, Stolen Valor received the 2000 William E.

Washington, DC: The Washington Post, 1983. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Wraps. The format is approximately 9.5 inches by 13 inches. 66, wraps, Illustrated cover. Illustrations. The covers are somewhat worn and soiled. The cover title: Holocaust, the obligation to remember. The Holocaust was the genocide of European Jews during World War II. Between 1941 and 1945, Nazi Germany and its collaborators systematically murdered some six million Jews across German-occupied Europe, around two-thirds of Europe's Jewish population. The murders were carried out primarily through mass shootings and poison gas in extermination camps, chiefly Auschwitz-Birkenau, Treblinka, Belzec, Sobibor, and Che mno in occupied Poland. The Nazis developed their ideology based on racism and pursuit of "living space", and seized power in early 1933. Meant to force all German Jews regardless of means to attempt to emigrate, the regime passed anti-Jewish laws, encouraged harassment, and orchestrated a nationwide pogrom in November 1938. After Germany invaded Poland in September 1939, occupation authorities began to establish ghettos to segregate Jews. Following the invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941, 1.5 to 2 million Jews were shot by German forces and local collaborators. Many Jewish survivors emigrated outside of Europe after the war. A few Holocaust perpetrators faced criminal trials. Billions of dollars in reparations have been paid, although falling short of the Jews' losses. The Holocaust has also been commemorated in museums, memorials, and culture. It has become central to Western historical consciousness as a symbol of the ultimate human evil. More

Minor cover wear, page soiling and sticker residue noted. Paul Joseph Goebbels (29 October 1897 – 1 May 1945) was a German Nazi politician and Reich Minister of Propaganda of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945. He was one of Adolf Hitler's closest and most devoted associates, and was known for his skills in public speaking and his deeply virulent antisemitism. He advocated progressively harsher discrimination, including the extermination of the Jews in the Holocaust. Goebbels obtained a Doctor of Philology degree from the University of Heidelberg in 1921. He joined the Nazi Party in 1924. He was appointed Gauleiter for Berlin in 1926, where he began to take an interest in the use of propaganda to promote the party. After the Nazis' seizure of power in 1933, Goebbels's Propaganda Ministry quickly gained and exerted control over the news media, arts, and information in Germany. He was particularly adept at using the relatively new media of radio and film for propaganda purposes. In 1943, Goebbels began to pressure Hitler to introduce measures that would produce "total war", including closing businesses not essential to the war effort, conscripting women into the labor force, and enlisting men in previously exempt occupations into the Wehrmacht. Hitler finally appointed him as Reich Plenipotentiary for Total War on 23 July 1944, whereby Goebbels undertook measures to increase the number of people available for armaments manufacture and the Wehrmacht.

Cover has some wear and soiling. This report examines the role of private security contractors in Iraq and Afghanistan. It describes the failure of the U.S. government to effectively control their actions, and in particular the inability or unwillingness of the Department of Justice to hold them criminally responsible for their illegal actions. While some of these contractors have been fired or received other employment sanctions, practically none have been prosecuted for serious misconduct that have resulted in death or serious injuries. Although the primary focus of this report is on private security contractors (PSCs), we also examine the role of private contractors in the interrogation process, specifically at Abu Ghraib. This report is based on information gained from meetings with: representatives from industry and trade associations; the military, other federal agencies and Congress; international organizations and the nonprofit community; academia; the legal community; and the media. It also is based on court records, government reports, declassified documents and other documentary sources. In general the operations of PSCs are far less transparent than those of the military services whose functions the PSCs increasingly are taking on. More

Statistics. Front corner creased. Minor corner creases on several pages. The original publication was entitled "Report of the International Commission to Inquire into the Causes and Conduct of the Balkan Wars, which was published by The Endowment in Washington, D.C. in 1914 It was the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, Division of Intercourse and Education, Publication No. 4. Verso does not list an ISBN for a hardcover version. The Balkan Wars consisted of two conflicts that took place in the Balkan Peninsula in south-eastern Europe in 1912 and 1913. Four Balkan states defeated the Ottoman Empire in the first war; one of the four, Bulgaria, suffered defeat in the second war. The Ottoman Empire lost the bulk of its territory in Europe. Austria-Hungary, although not a combatant, became relatively weaker as a much enlarged Serbia pushed for union of the South Slavic peoples. The war set the stage for the Balkan crisis of 1914 and thus served as a "prelude to the First World War" More
