Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nightmares that Kill A short while after being accepted as a student at New York University, Ted Harris, a Canadian, replaces a sick friend at his workplace, thus violating the conditions of his student’s visa. To avoid being expulsed from the USA, he joins the Marine Corps which implies taking courses on ‘Military Strategy and The Use of Explosives’ in addition to ‘Basic Training.’ As a result of a Presidential decision, Ted is precipitated into a long-lasting confrontation with the North Vietnamese Secret Service Commander. Nguyen Quang Hung, a South Vietnamese Special Forces Officer, becomes Ted’s teammate in various undercover operations. Ted witnesses his fellow soldiers being turned into human torches, stabbed by falling bamboo traps, shot or beheaded. Ted is overwhelmed by guilt building nightmares—his dead fellow soldiers asking him if his survival is fair when they had to pay the ultimate price. From one skirmish to another across Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, Ted and Hung keep crossing swords with an anonymous general called ‘General Shadow’ by the Americans. Eventually, Ted and Hung are captured and tortured. They narrowly escape death. The illusive General Shadow, in his spiteful will to defeat Ted at all costs, gets his fiancée executed. Ted is overwhelmed by his recurring nightmares which gradually he cannot distinguish from reality. After barely surviving the green jungle of Vietnam, is Ted going to be overcome by his nightmares of the jungle?
Download or read book Giuliani written by Andrew Kirtzman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New Yorker Best Book of the Year What happened to Rudy Giuliani? Andrew Kirtzman, who has been following Giuliani since the 1990s, answers that question in this “masterful and engrossing” (The Guardian) biography that “cuts through the myth and caricature that has too often defined Giuliani” (Los Angeles Times). Rudy Giuliani was hailed after 9/11 as “America’s Mayor,” a national hero who, at the time, was more widely admired than the pope. He was brilliant, accomplished—and complicated. He conflated politics with morality, made reckless personal choices, and engaged in self-destructive behavior. A series of disastrous decisions and cynical compromises, coupled with his need for power, money, and attention gradually ruined his reputation, cost him political support, and ultimately damaged the country. Kirtzman, who was with Giuliani at the World Trade Center on 9/11, conducted hundreds of interviews to give us an insightful portrait of this polarizing figure from the beginning of his rise to his high-profile role as Donald Trump’s personal lawyer. Giuliani was a celebrated prosecutor, a transformative New York City mayor, and a contender for the presidency. But by the end of the Trump presidency, he was reviled and ridiculed after a series of embarrassing errors and misjudgments. He was a significant figure in both of Trump’s impeachments and ended up widely ostracized, facing both legal jeopardy and financial ruin. This is the “lively new biography” (The New Yorker) of how it all began and how it came crashing down.
