The drama occurring in today's workplace is causing incredible suffering and insecurity due to intensely battling egos. It is the "longest running show in the country and is seen not in your local theaters but in every business in America." This book illuminates a "theater" model which brings clarity to the tightly woven web of intertwined egos that are currently operating in businesses and industries throughout the country. The goals of this book are short term--healing the pain, and long term--healing the soul. As leaders understand this new model they can replace the current environment of fear with trust and compassion.

Make no mistake. War is not fun. And Korea was no exception. In a war so bloody and so cold . . . How else can you withstand the agony but to see the lighter side of anything and everything to help maintain some form of sanity? 
When a son asked fifty years later about the Korean War, his dad responded by writing the poem "From the Beach to the Reservoir." Realities described in this poem (found in this book)are harsh,and the only way to cope is with humor as the authors express in "the other heroic events" (the short stories and essays in this book). The comical style somewhat helps relieve the pain of war. 
"The events are humorous," comments co-author Kal Kalnasy and Korean War veteran. "They were meant to be. If the humor offends someone, I'm sorry. But I'm not sorry for writing about it." 
Over 20 Korean War photos from the Marine Corps University Research Archives are included. (Portions of the proceeds from the sales of this book will be donated to Disabled American Veterans and the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society.)

Grace Jones, artist, designer, and interior decorator, notable not so much for what she discovered of color, beauty, and balance as for how she used her talent. From her base in the Pacific Northwest, she chose clients of diverse natures and helped them achieve the harmony they sought. Along the way, they shared insights, understanding, and lots of laughter. Many lives were enlarged. Grace was born in the Victorian era of British parents. In childhood, she almost lost herself under pressure to live dutifully and selflessly. She recovered with the help of her adventurous yet wise mother who showed her how to combine creed and creativity. Support came, too, from a man uniquely devoted to her from age 18 to 83. Nobody saw more clearly how Grace touched many lives than the author, her niece and adopted daughter.

HISTORY / PACIFIC NORTHWEST / GENEALOGY. A wonderful collection of historical facts, stories, and photos detailing the lives of the pioneers who settled and shaped the areas of Moab, Newman Lake, and Thompson Creek, Washington. In the early years, the small settlement of Moab with the post office, local mercantile store, the only telephone in the area, and the Northern Pacific train station was the business center for local residents. Newman Lake was named for William Newman who settled there in 1960. The lake shore became the home to many resorts, dance halls, and family cottages. The inviting lake was popular for swimming, fishing, and boating during the warm months. In the winter, ice skating was a popular sport. Thompson Creek, named for Lewis Thompson, was a noted trout fishing stream and the surrounding area was home to early homesteaders. Includes Index and over 300 archival photos / maps.
