New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons, 1991. First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. 222, [2] pages. Inscribed on the half-title page to Abelsohn [?] & Jackie--All the best, Jim Lehrer. Oklahoma's lieutenant governor, One-Eyed Mack, investigates the disappearance of Luther Wallace, the speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives, the primary opponent of Oklahoma Governor Buffalo Joe Hayman's asinine turnpike construction project. James Charles Lehrer (May 19, 1934 – January 23, 2020) was an American journalist, novelist, screenwriter, and playwright. Lehrer was the executive editor and a news anchor for the PBS NewsHour on PBS and was known for his role as a debate moderator during U.S. presidential election campaigns, moderating twelve presidential debates between 1988 and 2012. He authored numerous fiction and non-fiction books that drew upon his experience as a newsman, along with his interests in history and politics. In 1959, Lehrer began his career in journalism at The Dallas Morning News in Texas. Later, he worked as a reporter for the Dallas Times Herald, where he covered the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963. He was a political columnist there for several years, and in 1968 he became the city editor. In October 1975, Lehrer became the Washington correspondent for The Robert MacNeil Report on Thirteen/WNET New York. Two months later on December 1, 1975, he was promoted to co-anchor, and the program was accordingly renamed The MacNeil/Lehrer Report. In September 1983, Lehrer and MacNeil relaunched their show as The MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour, which was renamed The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, following MacNeil's departure in 1995. More

The Last Inauguration is an exciting, realistic story with non-stop action throughout the book. Lichtman clearly understands and accurately portrays the terrorist's mentality, the Mid-Eastern peace process, and the mindset of Saddam Hussein, especially in these days. The action starts when a group of U.S. Marines attempts to assassinate Saddam Hussein, moves on to a murderous bombing attack at the United Nations' headquarters in Geneva, and finally climaxes during a dramatic showdown in Washington, D.C. Written well before 9-11, this book is scary in its accuracy of what used to be thought of as a "never could happen" situation. Very well researched, and the author personally corresponded with Carlos the Jackal, who is one of the cast of characters. Charles Lichtman is an expert in Middle East affairs and issues regarding terrorism. He has twice been recognized as “Lawyer of the Year.”. More

Oak Lawn, IL: CMJ Marian Publishers, 2008. 3rd Printing, with revisions. Trade paperback. xix, [1], 203, [1] pages. Illustrations. Biographical Essay. Index. Small crease to title page. Father Daniel Mode is a U.S. Navy chaplain who has served in forward areas and ministered to multitudes of people in uniform. Over the course of his career so far, he has served on two aircraft carriers and has had numerous deployments, including to the Persian Gulf and Afghanistan, where he ministered to nearly 20,000 troops suffering tremendous losses. Father Mode finds inspiration in the life of another military chaplain, Father Vincent R. Capodanno, who was killed in action in Vietnam. Father Mode learned of Father Capodanno’s heroism and dedication when he was a young seminarian. Deeply moved, he wrote his master’s thesis on Father Capodanno, which, in 2000, was published as a book titled The Grunt Padre. Because of Father Mode’s book and his advocacy, in 2006, the Church officially proclaimed Father Capodanno a Servant of God, formally initiating the process for canonization. More
