Over The Horizon is historical fiction focused on the U.S. Navy's unofficial 'foreign legion' and based on several significant, but minimally reported, Cold War events in the western Pacific during 1980-1982. Such encounters never made the evening news, including a deadly collision at sea, a cat-and-mouse encounter with a Soviet aircraft carrier just miles off the Russian coast, and aerial engagements across the Korean peninsula against a squadron led by a charismatic South Korean wing commander known as the Scotch General. In October, 1973, with little fanfare, the United States Navy established its foreign legion on the far side of the planet. Baptized in the deep, cold waters of the Pacific Ocean, it was christened with a harmless, government-issued name: Overseas Family Residency Program. The innocent title allowed sailors' families across fifty states to sleep peacefully as their loved ones served faithfully on the volatile tip of America's sword. Based around the USS Midway, a World War Two-era aircraft carrier, high risk adventures were commonplace with the U.S. Navy's unofficial foreign legion in the western Pacific in the early 80's. Fly the A-6 Intruder, an all-weather, low level attack jet so lethal it was never exported to any other country. Befriend Eli, a golf caddy whose lifelong dream was to see over the horizon, and a young Filipino child whose infectious grin was the basis for 'smiling girl village.' The Navy's légion étrangère was based in Yokosuka, Japan, twenty-eight miles south of Tokyo, and its flagship was USS Midway, a World War Two vintage aircraft carrier. Few Americans knew her name, but America's enemies certainly knew who she was, as did America's presidents. Upon initial notification of a crisis halfway around the world, the first question the White House asked was always, "Where's Midway?" From its beginning, the Navy's foreign legion began patrolling the Western Pacific and Indian Ocean on a nearly continuous basis, remaining ever vigilant far from her home of birth. The ship's operating schedule was grueling; so grueling, in fact, that her unofficial motto was Semper Separatus - Always Separated. Life in the Navy's foreign legion was never easy, and the price tag was often perilously high, but Midway Magic was always along for the journey...somewhere over the horizon.

Even centuries later, the final decades of the twentieth century are still regarded as one of the darkest and most perilous chapters in the history of humanity Now, as an ancient and forbidden technology tempts mankind once more, Captain James T.

Can Khan's dark destiny be averted -- or is Earth doomed to fight Singh a global battle for supremacy?

Jack Baker is a self-employed painter and decorator in his late twenties who also does occasional small plumbing jobs. Abandoned by his mother at birth, Jack was brought up by foster parents. When working in a large country house, he comes across a sports trophy engraved with a name that re-ignites a deep-held desire to try to find his birth family, something he failed to achieve in an earlier attempt. Using a different approach this time, he makes contact with a half-brother. Unknown to Jack, his relative has a shady past involving convictions for minor crimes, which inadvertently draw in Jack. The connection with his half sibling leads to a complicated series of events involving a corrupt Member of Parliament and his equally corrupt nephew. The police use Jack to further their investigations into the MP and his nephew. It turns out that both men’s crimes are far more serious than originally thought. Russian spies are only part of his troubles as Jack becomes involved in a complicated series of events that threaten his life.

Another of my mystical poetry books in the series: The Language of the Wind. In this book, we look at things from the horizon. But the horizon is just another way of saying the edge. Sometimes when looking at things from the edge, it's the edge of getting happy or the edge of going crazy. Sometimes you're pulled back from the brink just in time. In this book there are White Water Journeys, the Outer Wondrousness, the Perihelion of Bliss, Dreamscapes and Funnels, Wisdom, Cunning, and Loneliness, Rhythms on the Brink, the Inner Marvel, and Heart Tonic. Then we get really close with Approaching the Edge, perhaps a little too closely. Instilling the Edge, You can't get closer than this. Of course that's only true until you do. Then you're on the Far Edge of the Horizon. I've also included a couple of mystical short stories - Miguelito: The smallest sueno (dream). That Hole Inside You, featuring your favorite striped mammal - Skunk. Mystics try to describe the indescribable with words. They bring you in touch with the spiritual world. Some mystical writing is hard to understand. I'd like to think that mine is easy. And some of it is very humorous. Of course, what could be more spiritual than chocolate? I've included two poems on that. Rating G. Reading Level: Very Easy 4th Grade. Longest Word: Tremendousness
