The U.S. government has allowed the Grays, a race of extra-terrestrials from the Zeta Reticuli system, to establish a foothold on Earth at a place called Dulce Base, a secret underground base near the Archuleta Mesa in New Mexico.This came about after President Eisenhower signed a treaty with them at Holleman Air Force Base in 1953, but following a surprise attack on the humans of the base in 1975, the treaty was deemed worthless and the U.S. government was in a bind.Fast forward to 1979. A group of Special Forces - all "dead" Vietnam vets - are assembled with the sole task of taking the base back or destroying it. When ungodly horrors are discovered on the base's deepest levels, however, the mission changes from one of search and destroy to one of rescue. Aided by six super soldiers impervious to the mind attacks of the Grays, the men fight for humanity in an epic sci-fi battle you can't afford to miss.

Nearly all of the politicians profiled in this book served in the military and fought in the nation's wars. Most who served in our nation's wars did not become politicians, however. They were common people for the most part, and we profile several of them. The war this time was Vietnam. A total of 32,689 Montanans served in the conflict and 267 died in it.That's just a small part of this book of Montana history

Montana's history is rich, colorful, and full of excitement in this fully-illustrated third volume of the state's history. Montana Territory had 20,595 people in 1870 and the vast majority were Indians. Those Indians would fight for their lands, and much of the territory's focus was on the Indian Wars raging across the state. By 1900 there were 243,329 people in the State of Montana. The numbers would only continue to rise as more and more businessmen got interested in the state's natural resources.Mining dominated the 1880s and 1890s, even as politics were changing both locally and nationally. The Panic of 1893 took the wind from the silver industry in the state, but copper mining remained strong. And mining men like Marcus Daly and William A. Clark did everything in their power to get their way politically. It was a raucous time in the state over these three decades, and its people and places are all profiled. Like the first and second volumes in this Montana history series, Tribes and Trappers and Priests and Prospectors, this third volume takes a biographical approach.

Begin the journey to discover how Montana came to be the great state that it is today!By 1900 Montana was home to 243,329 people. The state had produced 61% of the country's copper just the year before, which amounted to 23% of the world's supply. By 1930 there were 537,606 people in the state. The nation was just beginning to get a taste of the banking crashes and economic depression that Montanans had been feeling since the '20s.The cause of these problems in Montana can be traced to propaganda both the state and railroads put out beginning in 1905. These pamphlets told bald-faced lies to people the world over. Dry farming was advocated, and in an environment that couldn't support it long-term. When the bust came in 1916 more than 200,000 people left. As a result, Montana was the only state in the union to lose population in the 'Roaring Twenties.'You'll learn all that and more in this exciting fourth volume of Montana history. There's Montana's involvement in the Spanish-American War in 1898, the creation of the National Forests and magnificent dams in the state, and the Panic of 1907 that devastated the nation's and world's economy. And that's just one decade in this three-decade book!Experience this wondrous series that hundreds of readers already have.
