Book Description
This is the third and final part of the author’s autobiography, and it begins where the second volume “The Search For Happily Ever After” ended, at New Years 1986. The family’s tour of duty in Japan is coming to an end and the big questions are where they will go next and what their jobs will be like when they get there. Chris is off to the 2nd Space Wing to begin that unit’s history as an active unit at the newly constructed Falcon Air Force Base, a dozen miles east of Colorado Springs, one of the couple’s favorite spots to live. Wanda is off to school to enter a new career field, hopefully more suited to her than when she attempted to be a military historian like her husband. Eric will be entering high school. Live this life as the author did through the second half of the 1980s and into the early 1990s; you’ll be glad you did as you work towards the conclusion. Extensively illustrated with nearly 500 photographs that take you around the world and the USA, you will watch this story develop over the next six years. If you lived through the 1980s and early 1990s, you will surely relate to this story. If you were too young to remember those times, the story will fascinate you and hold your interest as it is timeless in its energy and emotions. Will happily ever after and love that lasts finally become a reality? Come along on this journey and see for yourself as the story concludes...in a surprising location.

Book Description
Do you ever feel overwhelmed by your life? Do you really want to live in a better world? Would you like to know more about the world you are living in? Then, this is the right e-book for you! You will be taken on a captivating tour where you will be shown a wide range of topics which will help you to spot the best place in the world and, therefore, to find out your own Eden. The book takes into account the geophysical (climatic conditions, areas at greater risk from future earthquakes, hurricane danger zones and so on), economic (cost of living, tax pressure, inflation and so on) and social aspects (criminality index, education level, healthcare quality and so on) of each country in the world. Each chapter examines its topic in depth and, as pictures speak louder than words, a world map shows, in different colours, the specific conditions of the countries. The world is full of lies, of half-truths and of statistics as well. This is the reason why the figures of our world maps come from a reliable source. The statistical data are supplied by the leading organisations on the subject (ONU, World Bank, NOAA, etc..). These figures can be fully relied on. All you have to do is compare the different countries in the world and you will discover your own Eden, the real place able to meet your unique requirements and needs. N.B. Coloured maps inside

Paradise Found
Author: Steve Nicholls
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226583422
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 535
Book Description
The first Europeans to set foot on North America stood in awe of the natural abundance before them. The skies were filled with birds, seas and rivers teemed with fish, and the forests and grasslands were a hunter’s dream, with populations of game too abundant and diverse to even fathom. It’s no wonder these first settlers thought they had discovered a paradise of sorts. Fortunately for us, they left a legacy of copious records documenting what they saw, and these observations make it possible to craft a far more detailed evocation of North America before its settlement than any other place on the planet. Here Steve Nicholls brings this spectacular environment back to vivid life, demonstrating with both historical narrative and scientific inquiry just what an amazing place North America was and how it looked when the explorers first found it. The story of the continent’s colonization forms a backdrop to its natural history, which Nicholls explores in chapters on the North Atlantic, the East Coast, the Subtropical Caribbean, the West Coast, Baja California, and the Great Plains. Seamlessly blending firsthand accounts from centuries past with the findings of scientists today, Nicholls also introduces us to a myriad cast of characters who have chronicled the changing landscape, from pre–Revolutionary era settlers to researchers whom he has met in the field. A director and writer of Emmy Award–winning wildlife documentaries for the Smithsonian Channel, Animal Planet, National Geographic, and PBS, Nicholls deploys a cinematic flair for capturing nature at its most mesmerizing throughout. But Paradise Found is much more than a celebration of what once was: it is also a reminder of how much we have lost along the way and an urgent call to action so future generations are more responsible stewards of the world around them. The result is popular science of the highest order: a book as remarkable as the landscape it recreates and as inspired as the men and women who discovered it.

Pages : 945
Book Description
Christopher Scharping is beginning his fourth career. After a long Air Force career, fi rst as a medic and then as an Air Force Historian for the majority of his 20+ years of active duty, he worked for the US Postal Service in Buffalo, NY for a decade before becoming a History and Language Arts teacher in Florida. Now, he has turned his talents to his own writing. Since childhood in a small town in western New York State near Buffalo, he had always dreamed of traveling around the world and of fi nding a true love that would lead to “Happily Ever After”. The Air Force provided the means for world travel, which is prolifi cally illustrated in this book and in the next. The “love” proved to be much more diffi cult to attain and keep. He and his lovely wife Catherine currently live in Panama City, Florida and dream of returning to Colorado one day to live there again. As John Muir once said, “The Mountains Are Calling; I Must Go!”

Book Description
Sometimes we’re lucky enough to get that second chance – in life and in love. That Second Chance Series are stand-alone stories of strong women who battle heartache and loss with a courage and determination to find new paths and true love. What ties them together? A common theme: belief in the beauty of that second chance. Paradise Found is Book Four of That Second Chance Series. How does one see truly—with the heart or with the eyes? Matt Brandon has it all—wealth, power, looks, and talent. Women want him; men want to be like him. When a freak ski accident strips him of one of life’s most basic needs—his sight—he struggles to accept the possibility that his blindness may be permanent. Enter psychologist Sara Hamilton, a woman who has known her own share of grief and loss and may just be the one person who can help Matt redefine his new world. Sara is every woman’s woman—she’s not a toothpick or a Cosmo girl, has never been prom queen, or dated the blond-haired god with the big white teeth. She’s honest and decent and real…and lives on the perimeter, applauding her patients’ successes, nursing them through their failures, but never acknowledging or accepting what she lacks in her own life. She’s loved and lost once and has been so emotionally scarred, she’s not willing to risk those feelings again. Of course, she’s never met a man like Matt Brandon. As Matt and Sara explore the delicate balance between “blind” trust and hope, they will discover that sometimes you have to lose everything to find what you are truly looking for… That Second Chance Series:Book One: Pulling Home (Also prequel to A Family Affair: The Promise)Book Two: The Way They Were (Also prequel to A Family Affair: The Secret)Book Three: Simple Riches (Also prequel to A Family Affair: Winter)Book Four: Paradise FoundBook Five: Not Your Everyday HousewifeBook Six: The Butterfly Garden
