Download or read book Snake Rolling in Hot written by Bud Jones and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Snake, Rolling in Hot” is a historical novel about a squadron of Marine Corps helicopter pilots and their crews. It is a true accounting about flying and fighting in Vietnam as well as the training of aircrews before they were sent to Southeast Asia. The combat operations take place in I-Corps in Vietnam and from the decks of navy carriers in the South China Sea. The story also takes a look at some of the wild R & R escapades Marines experienced in Hong Kong, Bangkok, the Philippines and other hot spots around the world. There is also a provocative look at the political scene in the U.S. during the war in Vietnam and how it affected several of the characters in the book in a ways they never thought possible when the war began. With dialog that snaps with electricity and realism, “Snake, Rolling in Hot” takes the reader into the cockpits of Marine choppers during action packed missions flown against the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army. After reading this book, no one will ever feel the same about helicopters and their crews again.

Download or read book Roy Wilkins written by Yvonne Ryan and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2013-12-12 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roy Wilkins (1901--1981) spent forty-six years of his life serving the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and led the organization for more than twenty years. Under his leadership, the NAACP spearheaded efforts that contributed to landmark civil rights legislation, including the 1964 Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act. In Roy Wilkins: The Quiet Revolutionary and the NAACP, Yvonne Ryan offers the first biography of this influential activist, as well as an analysis of his significant contributions to civil rights in America. While activists in Alabama were treading the highways between Selma and Montgomery, Wilkins was walking the corridors of power in Washington, D.C., working tirelessly in the background to ensure that the rights they fought for were protected through legislation and court rulings. With his command of congressional procedure and networking expertise, Wilkins was regarded as a strong and trusted presence on Capitol Hill, and received greater access to the Oval Office than any other civil rights leader during the presidency of Lyndon B. Johnson. Roy Wilkins fills a significant gap in the history of the civil rights movement, objectively exploring the career and impact of one of its forgotten leaders. The quiet revolutionary, who spent his life navigating the Washington political system, affirmed the extraordinary and courageous efforts of the many men and women who braved the dangers of the southern streets and challenged injustice to achieve equal rights for all Americans.

Download or read book The World Rolling in Death Row written by Mohammad Kabir and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-08 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have seen at this time every day what is happening around us and for our neighbors and what the danger is there for them and for us. The danger is the terror missions, militants, insurgents, other small anti-militia groups, and the major weather threats. All these projections make the danger. It is today and will continue these hazardous situations for tomorrow and for the next millennia. However, the danger the book is discussing is about the U.S., including the U.S. allies and for the global world. The poetry is all about the present dangers that have already been created by the weather, wars, and the anti-human attackers, and the future danger of the weather. Danger, danger, danger, more danger in the future if we have no solutions at all for stopping the crucial aggression, we will all be caught by potential strangers.
