Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you ever look into the eyes of an animal and wonder if they could understand you? Have you ever fantasized about how great it would be for you to understand what they thought? In this fascinating book Gerald Bunch relates his journey from Naval Officer/engineer/left-brained empiricist to intuitive animal communicator. He explains that intuitive communication is a capability we are all born with and we can each re-learn. In sharing many of the conversations he has had with various species, he takes us into the world as experienced by animals. He describes how we can deepen the bond we have with our animal companions and how their love and devotion to us can change our lives. His study of quantum physics helped him bridge the gap between hard science and telepathy, but he stresses it is not necessary to know how animal communication works, only that it does work. All the time. Gerald and his buddy Oscar the Cat are on an odyssey. Their passion is to make the world a better place for all of its inhabitants.

Book excerpt: A TRUE SPIRITUAL JOURNEY WARRIOR: A Spiritual Odyssey There are no coincidences. You came across this book through a connection between your hungry spirit and the writer's desire that you be nourished. Which parts of you it will awaken will be as individual as your yearnings, but the words are guaranteed to feed your soul. Join Rev. Bill as he recounts his spiritual journey in selected stories through a life which began with a seemingly unending dysfunctional childhood, included an astonishing tour of duty in Vietnam, and then opened into one of the widest benevolent lives ever. His entire existence has been lived out under a spiritual umbrella that keeps him safe no matter how powerful the storm. Not afraid to go out into the rain, Rev. Bill's humility, integrity, loyalty, faith and courage is expressed through his every move. His investment in recounting events provides all readers to experience places they've only dreamed about. The situations allow reflective readers to parallel the events to their own lives. And in the end, each reader will stand with him at Machu Picchu, Peru and begin his or her own odyssey. In effect this book is a road map to Rev. Bill's personal, spiritual and emotional destination. Metaphorically the 'map' is on the seat of his pickup. When you begin the book he's essentially handing you the keys and offering you the opportunity to experience his route, after which you'll be able to tweak your own map. Here is What Others Have To Say About This Book: "You will enjoy and be inspired by his tales of the inexplicable, and may well find inner strength for facing your own difficulties in life. This is a great man and I'm proud to call him my friend." Shadoe Stevens; radio and television personality and TV and movie producer, artist "A warrior in the true sense, Bill awakens us to the depths of soul combat, taking us from the war zone to the hearts of all he touched." Maureen McGill, author, associate professor at Pacific Lutheran University "Bill McDonald is the real spiritual deal. He's made a tremendous impact on me, guiding, encouraging, and educating me in ways that have opened my eyes and my soul, and have helped me to become a better and happier person." Gayle Lynds, New York Times' bestselling author "When I first met Rev. Bill, I knew immediately that there was something special about this man. In his book, you are able to walk a spiritual path with a man who has served his country, lived to tell about it, and then refocused his energies on alleviating the suffering of those around him. The stories in his book are those of an individual who has opened himself up to the transcendental, and written about his insights. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has ventured, or thought about venturing, down the road of higher purpose." Christopher Martini, writer, director, producer, actor "Most of Bill McDonald's stories contain the line ..".and so I went with my feelings" and that choice has always worked out for him. Extraordinarily gifted, Bill lives in a rich cosmos where spiritual assets and knowledge are intertwined. Although he has experienced poverty, abuse, physical and emotional pain, and war, Bill thrives. In his new old book, Warrior, he shares tragical, magical tales that inspire and confound -- and celebrate the many perspectives of life." Joyce Faulkner, award-winning author of "In the Shadow of Suribachi," "Windshift," and "USERNAME." "Bill's book is one that has superb descriptions of the life's lessons learned from the hell of combat to an incredible, miraculous journey home to his truest self. His story is entertaining, spiritually enlightening, inspirational, and filled with guiding wisdom. It is a book that will surely bring all readers to their own Spiritual awakening." Nancy Clark, international author, Divine Moments: Ordinary People Having Spiritually Transformative Experiences.
