A breathtaking and lavishly illustrated autobiography in essays on Anatoli Boukreev, the late world-famous mountaineer and author of The Climb. When Anatoli Boukreev died on the slopes of Annapurna on Christmas day, 1997, the world lost one of the greatest adventurers of our time. In Above the Clouds, both the man and his incredible climbs on Mt. McKinley, K2, Makalu, Manaslu, and Everest-including his diary entries on the infamous 1996 disaster, written shortly after his return-are immortalized. There also are minute technical details about the skill of mountain climbing, as well as personal reflections on what life means to someone who risks it every day. Fully illustrated with gorgeous color photos, Above the Clouds is a unique and breathtaking look at the world from its most remote peaks.

Carl Allen Hampton has spent five years building Millennium Realty into a powerhouse brokerage in the Detroit Metro market. Standing beside him during this journey has been long-time girlfriend and fiance', Pamela Matthews, and long-time employee, Angela Miles. This story follows his journey to success and chronicles how he makes some powerful enemies along the way. His life falls apart when two months before his and Pam's wedding, she abruptly moves out. Adding insult to injury, she starts a professional and romantic relationship with his bitter rival, Jason Davis. Things get worse when the investors in a blockbuster deal pull out at the last minute. Carl Allen must raise three million, five hundred thousand dollars, in forty-five days or go bankrupt. Bankruptcy is not an option, he'd lose everything he's worked years to build. What started as a routine day, changed his life when he walked by Felicia's Bump N Curl. Sitting under the dryer was Jessica Williams, a sultry, and voluptuous woman. They locked eyes and the fire started to burn. The attraction was mutual, and Jessica stopped by Millennium Realty to introduce herself. Three days before it seemed he's about to go bankrupt, Jessica steps up and provides the money he needs. Carl Allen soon finds out that this money comes with hella strings! Jessica's sketchy past and ruthless reputation lead him down a path he'd rather not have taken. Before the journey is over, Carl Allen finds himself facing the Detroit Police Department, the Department of Justice, (DOJ), and the Internal Revenue Service, (IRS). These are minor complications, the entanglement with Jessica might just cost him his life. Carl Allen finds out the hard way, when you play with fire, you will probably get burned. Page | 2

There is the mythology of the Green Berets, of their clandestine, special operations as celebrated in story and song. And then there is the reality of one soldier?s experience, the day-to-day loss and drudgery of a Green Beret such as H. Lee Barnes, whose story conveys the daily grind and quiet desperation behind polished-for-public-consumption accounts of military heroics. In When We Walked Above the Clouds, Barnes tells what it was like to be a Green Beret, first in the Dominican Republic during the civil war of 1965, and then at A-107, Tra Bong, Vietnam. There, he eventually came to serve as the advisor to a Combat Recon Platoon, which consisted chiefly of Montagnard irregulars. Though ?nothing extraordinary,? as Barnes saw it, his months of simply doing what the mission demanded make for sobering reading: the mundane business of killing rats, cleaning guns, and building bunkers renders the intensity of patrols and attacks all the more harrowing. More than anything, Barnes?s story is one of loss?of morale lost to alcoholism, teammates lost to friendly fire, missions aborted, and missions endlessly and futilely repeated. As the story advances, so does the attrition?teammates transferred, innocence cast off, confidence in leadership whittled away. And yet, against this dark background, Barnes still manages to honor the quiet professionals whose service, overshadowed by the outsized story of Vietnam, nonetheless carried the day.
