The year is 1945, and the war that ravaged most of Europe is drawing to an end. The German Wehrmacht and its collaborators have been defeated and are on the run. Countries like Poland, Russia, and Yugoslavia expelled millions of ethnic German civilians living within their borders as retribution for the human atrocities perpetrated by the Nazis against their people.The ethnic Germans living in Yugoslavia were forced to abandon their homes, leaving everything behind, and make the long arduous trip to a safe haven in Austria and Germany. The Germans that refused to leave or could not travel were forced by communist Yugoslav partisans into concentration camps, where they were beaten, raped, murdered, or left to starve to death. This true story follows the life of a young ethnic German girl, born and raised in Serbia, then part of Yugoslavia, amid the chaos, destruction, and death after WWII. Her will to live is a testament to the strength and courage of the human spirit.

The gardens are magic places where children can discover, learn, and make friends. They feel free to explore the diversity of animals, birds, insects, and plants.The story teaches the alphabet with words provided by a garden experience seen through a little girl's eyes. From the buzzing bees, to the birds and butterflies, all the way up to the tree's canopy where the squirrels are playing, there is so much to enjoy on a sunny day! But the grounds are nothing less: unturned stones, a quirky pond, and wondering paths are filled with bugs' life and other small creatures, amazed by the enchanting time of spring!The book has soft covers for little hands to carry it everywhere and spaces to practice writing and drawing of their own friends.

The purpose of this booklet is to prove that the bulk of the properties in Jerusalem belong to the native Palestinian citizens of Jerusalem.The Jewish State seized all these properties, employing means that violates not only international law but also the private property rights of the individual Arab Palestinian families.Through the Absentee Property Law, Palestinian ownership in West Jerusalem was crossed out in the register of title deeds and replaced by Jewish ownership. This act is illegal, especially that most of the Palestinian families still live in Jerusalem.After the occupation of East Jerusalem in 1967, Israel formulated another law, ostensibly for public use, but the object of which is to dispossess Palestinians of thousands of dunams for the construction of exclusive Jewish residential settlements surrounding Palestinian neighborhoods.These acts have impoverished the Palestinians and enriched the Jews. The recent decision of the US Trump administration declaring Jerusalem as the capital of Israel condones theft of property and encourages the Jewish State to continue down the path of corruption and defiance of legality and the truth about who owns most of Jerusalem.US president Trump and VP Pence are unknowing accomplices to the Jewish State in the theft of native Palestinian property owners who have lived in Jerusalem for hundreds of years before the Jewish migrant invasion of Palestine.

I have written many stories I will always treasure which began during the Great Depression in the 1930s. Some of these stories I would tell to my friends, and they would say, "You need to write a book about that!" I am certain they were not serious, but I thought, Why not? There were some crazy things that happened in a lifetime of experiences. To meet so many legends, I had to be there at the right place and at the right time.I have written many stories that have educational and historical significance. Most of the stories are intended to have humor with no harm intended to anyone.From the Ball Fields to the Coalfields is written to be nonfiction, although some stories are hard to believe. The lifetime of experiences mostly occurred in three regions of Virginia and some in Concord, North Carolina. The three regions in Virginia were the coastal tidewater area, the Shenandoah Valley, and the coalfields of far southwest Virginia. The people involved are friends, family, teachers, coaches, pro-athletes, my baseball teammates, and so many wonderful kids that I taught or coached.Although my book may be considered as an autobiography, it is more about people that the reader would enjoy hearing about their accomplishments rather than my own. During the time I wrote From the Ball Fields to the Coalfields, which started in 2001 until the present time, there were changes in people's lives such as a professional athlete or a coach changing jobs in some cases. Also, there were some people that I wrote about who are now deceased. Some of these occurrences are not mentioned, although the people who have passed away are in the section on "IN MEMORY OF." The book is written over a twenty-year period but as chronological as possible with changes in people's occupations and awards, such as a National Hall of Fame Award to basketball coach Lefty Driesell. Please refer to chapter 32, "LEFTY."Before my time on the ball fields, the book covers my grandfather's part in helping with the Great Depression and an early part of my family in Concord, North Carolina. The period covers a period about being a World War II child, gangs of the fifties, school and amateur baseball, glory years of sports by way of radio, how army and college life was over fifty years ago, and how it was to be a teacher and coach for most of the period beginning in the early 1960s until 2010. Racial equality is one of America's top issues. Chapters 20, 22, 23, and 27 demonstrate how far our nation has gone to be equal, but we still have a way to go. The chapters stress my involvement with African American treatment before Dr. Martin L. King's speech about freedom.If I would have fulfilled my childhood dream and made it to the Major Leagues, then I would not have the nostalgic stories about my family, childhood friends, teaching and coaching friends, and those thousands of kids who are in my book, From the Ball Fields to the Coalfields.

to all the people I worked with and work for, thanks for making everyday a new event, most of them enjoyable..

I decided to write this book for my four grandsons and for the children of St. Jude Hospital for children with childhood cancer. Fifty percent of all monetary proceeds of all royalties paid to the author for this book will be gladly given to charity, to Marlo Thomas and St. Jude Hospital. The remaining 50 percent will be equally divided between my four grandsons. Thank you very much. Billy the Bad, Bad Kid, a.k.a. Donnie Angel

On February 15, 1946, the life of US Army Technician Fifth Grade Floyd O. Hudson Jr. was cut short by fellow soldiers--all over a thrown beer bottle while still on active duty. Private Hudson's life had such promise. He and his brothers, who lived an idyllic life growing up at the Llangollen estate in Upperville, Virginia, were a successful music trio that had caught the eye and ear of Gene Autry, who was prepared to mentor them in the music industry. Unfortunately, those dreams suddenly ended for the Hudson brothers that awful night in Asperg, Germany.Unfriendly Fire provides details of that night, gleaned from actual trial transcripts, which resulted in the conviction of three soldiers, who were sentenced to be hanged. It also includes a mysterious attempt by high-level politicians to commute the death sentences to hard labor. Due to a successful FOIA request on the eventual fate of these soldiers, we now know if that attempt succeeded.But Unfriendly Fire also serves as a repository of a young soldier's musings on life and love, through dozens of letters written to his mother back home. Included in this book are images heretofore unpublished, which help tell the story--photos, newspaper clippings, Nazi memorabilia, and other period images.
