“The war in Iraq has followed her to Colorado.”

A new book by SDA supporter Bill Greenwood. Check it out here.

Update from Bill — “It won’t be on sale until some time in January. If it gets enough nominations, it will get a slot in Amazon’s promoted publications. If it doesn’t get a promo slot, it’ll still go on Amazon at the end of the nomination period.”

Christmas Carol

Via long time SDA reader John, a Christmas book plug;

The illustration of the Dickens’ Christmas Carol, was a labor of love for Steve … Dickens being his favorite author.
Each day for five years Steve came home from work and spent his evenings and week-ends doing the frames that would become a wonderful Christmas gift and an annual coffee table presentation.
The art work was entirely done using ink and a quill pen to keep it authentic to the period. In addition, the book is bound in a way that was common in Dickens time.
The books contain approximately 80 pages of beautiful detailed art work and dialog. A nice read to the kids during the holidays …. Kids will like the pictures as they are cartoon-like as kids would see them.
The books are going this year for $50 plus shipping. No tax. They come in a gift box for your convenience. They do make great gifts for the ‘hard to buy for’ folks.

The books are on currently for sale at the Pentiction Art Gallery and a couple of places in Kelowna.
Steve will take orders through his Boo-Ink FB site.
Steve’s childhood nickname was Boo Boo … thus ‘Boo Ink’. Steve is about to turn 60 in Feb and is now retired in the Okanagan Valley … from the chilly Edmonton.

Economics For The Disinterested

“After many years of frustration about the absence of realistic information
about economics for a lay person I decided to research the topic and write a
book for the layman. This book outlines how an economy comes about, what
drives people making transactions and what means are used. It is a simple
explanantion of what goes on around us in the world and how to make sense of
all the activity. The book then goes on to show how the government and
banks, especially the IMF and World Bank, influence and inhibit our
financial freedom and how this interference causes all the problems of
economies around the world. Finally, a section explains a little about how
to best arrange your financial well-being since we have not been taught this
in grade school or any other school later in life.”

Afghanistan — A novel by Bill Greenwood (Kindle Edition)

A new Cold War has dawned. In London, a government bureaucrat has discovered what might be a Russian plot to destroy the West with a diabolical surprise attack that no one will see coming. Before anyone can act, they must first determine if the plot is real, and who is behind it.

It falls upon a British spy, struggling with tragedy, and his old friend from the SAS, himself worn down by his years of service to Queen and Country, to learn what they can of the plot and stop it if they can.

Easy Meat: Inside Britain’s Grooming Gang Scandal

“Peter McLoughlin spent years believing the Leftist narrative, namely it was ‘a racist myth’ that organised Muslim groups in Britain and the Netherlands ( grooming gangs ) were luring white schoolgirls into a life of prostitution. But in 2009 he first encountered people who said their children had been groomed like this. These informants had non-white people in their immediate and extended family, and were thus unlikely to be racists. So McLoughlin dug deeper and what he found shocked him: there were mounds of evidence that social workers, police officers, Muslim organisations, journalists and even some Members of Parliament must have known about these grooming gangs for decades, and they had turned a blind-eye to these crimes…”

In The Mail

From left-wing activist in Montreal and Toronto to Conservative Party campaigner in Ottawa, Fred Litwin tells a captivating coming-out story that will delight and upset right-wingers and progressives alike. There is intrigue with the Iranian embassy, a fiercely critical examination of the gay establishment in Canada, an exposé of the politics driving senior CBC managers, and a behind-the-scenes look at the conservative movement’s nasty and shadowy “counter-jihad” subculture. And a lot more.
