Download or read book The Leprechaun s Story written by Tanis Helliwell and published by Wayshower Enterprises. This book was released on 2023-01-03 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A story like no other! Welcome to THE LEPRECHAUN'S STORY. In his autobiography Lloyd, an Irish leprechaun, invites us into his world of friendly goblins, inept elves, clever leprechauns (well, of course) and you see through his eyes the magical world of nature spirits that exists only a blink away from the human world. Join Lloyd as he recounts his childhood, courting and handfasting, an Irish wake, and how he ‘got the gold’ and meet his emancipated lass and non-conformist son. Great good humor rolls through his story interlaced with wisdom about how he and other elementals want to partner with humans to create a wonderful world. Tanis Helliwell met Lloyd many years ago and wrote the cherished classic Summer with the Leprechauns about the experience. Here, however, she remains fully in the background, only recounting his words. Tanis’s other books include Pilgrimage with the Leprechauns, Hybrids: so you think you are human, and Good Morning Henry: an in-depth journey with the body intelligence. PRAISE FOR TANIS HELLIWELL'S BOOKS: “Tanis Helliwell is a spiritual evocateur and deep seer who opens us up to other voices…other realms.” —Jean Houston, author of A Mythic Life, ambassador to the UN “This delightful book (Summer with the Leprechauns) is not only great fun to read, but makes most interesting and intelligent suggestions about the reality and work of this particular branch of the nature world. It can help us to open our minds to fascinating dimensions that do exist on the planet.” —Dorothy MacLean, co-founder of Findhorn and author of To Hear the Angels Sing.

Download or read book Enduring the Freedom written by Sean M. Maloney and published by Potomac Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within hours of the September 11 attacks, Sean M. Maloney deciphered that Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda were the aggressors behind the despicable act. A war in Afghanistan then was inevitable. As a military historian, Maloney was determined to go there to study and record the events for posterity, if for no other reason than the education of his future students at Canada's Royal Military College. What resulted is an in-depth and up-close look at the planning stages, deployment, and aftermath of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. In Enduring the Freedom, Maloney presents a rare on-the-spot view from such important locations as Kabul, Bagram, and Kandahar. He describes the American-led intervention in Afghanistan and the conduct of the war through early 2003, then discusses the events of 2003 from the three locales in detail. Some critics contend that the war in Afghanistan is another Vietnam. Maloney rebuts that appraisal, pointing out that as opposed to the vague language of the Vietnam era, American objectives were clearly stated for Afghanistan. Those objectives were: to destroy al Qaeda's networks, training camps, resources, and communication systems; to destroy any governmental entity providing support or sanctuary to al Qaeda; and to undertake reconstruction efforts to ensure international terrorists can never again use the country as a base. The first objective has more or less been achieved. How to accomplish the last two is still widely debated, and Maloney offers some insightful thoughts and opinions. Finally, he offers educated advice going forward in the hopeful completion of Operation Enduring Freedom.
