Whispers of Honduras: A Peace Corps Experience is a Peace Corps Volunteer (PCV) account of living in Olancho, Honduras from September 1997-December 1999. Manto was a quiet, little mountain town surrounded by pine-forested hills then. As a PCV, I was treated well, laughed a lot, learned to slow down, and developed a deeper understanding of international relations, environmental protection, poverty, and friendship, among countless other words that could be listed here. The pages of the book depict small parts of me that serve as experiences not only of my life in Olancho, but also other areas of Honduras during my time as a PCV. The sections before "Return to Hondo" were written while as a PCV and the chapters after it were written during a return trip in December 2007/January 2008. With that, I give you words and photos that may illuminate my understanding of Honduras.

A mysterious wind blows from the south... A whisper falls from its breath... A boy follows. An old man speaks of the greatest love... A troubled physician listens... A heart is changed. A disease steals a life´s dream... A rose drops its petals... A dream is passed on. Listen for the whisper... You too will follow You too will change. The Whisper InThe Wind ..will open your heart in ways that will stay with you forever. In the beautiful San Juan Islands, Samuel Trent's adored wife, Gabriella, is dying of a disease that has destroyed her immunity, confining her to her sterile room. A young physician, Jack Dubin, makes scheduled house calls to assist her. In the warmth of a magical kitchen, Jack listens as Samuel tells his story of an outcast boy comforted by a mysterious voice in the wind, of a young man drawn into the heart of an unknown woman, and of a broken doctor led by a dead man's gift to Honduras to be a missionary. Jack, a man with a broken past, becomes addicted to this man's story and the warmth it brings to his troubled heart. Jack's own world fades away as Samuel tells how he and Gabriella finally come together in Honduras, a land torn apart by revolution. Gabriella is in Honduras with her husband John, a hateful, abusive man who has no love for her, but only seeks to use her in his struggle for power in Honduras. The love between them flourishes in the exotic Central American jungle, and only the heat of the equatorial sun surpasses their intense sensuality and passion. After finishing his story, the book returns to a magical portrayal of love in the last chapter of life. Along with Jack's, your spirit too will soar in the wind in search of the whisper which may lead you on your own magical journey in quest of life's greatest gift. Duane Klaus creates a masterpiece of love filled with original poems and vivid imagery. The Whisper In The Wind will lift your soul.

In 1938, two rival expeditions descend on an ancient temple recently discovered in the jungles of Honduras, one intending to shoot a huge Hollywood production on location there, the other to disassemble the temple and ship it back to New York. A seemingly endless stalemate ensues. Twenty years later, a rogue CIA agent sets out to exploit the temple for his own ends, unaware that it is a locus of conspiracies far grander than anyone could ever have guessed. Shot through with intrigue, ingenuity, and adventure, and showcasing Beauman’s riotous humor, spectacular imagination, and riveting prose, Madness Is Better Than Defeat is a novel without parallel: inventive, anarchic, and delightfully insane.

Colonel, Brian Collins, U.S. Army, Federal Marshal Tim Fallon and Dr.Michael Shea—all born in 1946 and representative members of the War Baby Generation—are introduced in the opening chapters of the novel, the year all three men turn fifty. The murder of an Army officer and her New York City Police Detective lover, bring Brian, his two childhood friends, and those important to, their past and present lives, together again, in a literary thriller played out in places like Fort Bragg, North Carolina, New York City, New Jersey and Honduras. Behind the media accounts of the war against crime by municipalities where police commanders publically account (Comstat) for the rise and fall of crime in their precincts, and the precision and gadgetry of military smart bombs, behind the strategies and tactics of the Department of Defense, there are people, up and down the chain of command, good and bad, members of paramilitary and military organizations, the rank and file with their own personal drives, ambitions, needs, dark and light sides. War Babies is a story about three of them, drawn together by a murder which connects all three and the people important to them. Metaphorically, War Babies is not without a necessary degree of infant mortality. Death, destruction, complication and intrigue are character driven and serve to intensify and realistically portray the story lives of the characters. War Babies’ is about evolved characters coming to terms with themselves, their partners and a world that the baby boomer generation largely created themselves. Having spent twenty-six years, in one part of my life—in places like Europe, Central America and the United States—both active and reserve in the Army, where I began as a Private and retired as a Major—and written, among other things, Of Cops and Priests and Fact and Fiction, I think War Babies mirrors the reality of police procedure, military protocol and every day characters.

Named a Best Book of the Year by the San Francisco Chronicle and The Times-Picayune The fascinating untold tale of Samuel Zemurray, the self-made banana mogul who went from penniless roadside banana peddler to kingmaker and capitalist revolutionary When Samuel Zemurray arrived in America in 1891, he was tall, gangly, and penniless. When he died in the grandest house in New Orleans sixty-nine years later, he was among the richest, most powerful men in the world. Working his way up from a roadside fruit peddler to conquering the United Fruit Company, Zemurray became a symbol of the best and worst of the United States: proof that America is the land of opportunity, but also a classic example of the corporate pirate who treats foreign nations as the backdrop for his adventures. Zemurray lived one of the great untold stories of the last hundred years. Starting with nothing but a cart of freckled bananas, he built a sprawling empire of banana cowboys, mercenary soldiers, Honduran peasants, CIA agents, and American statesmen. From hustling on the docks of New Orleans to overthrowing Central American governments and precipitating the bloody thirty-six-year Guatemalan civil war, the Banana Man lived a monumental and sometimes dastardly life. Rich Cohen's brilliant historical profile The Fish That Ate the Whale unveils Zemurray as a hidden power broker, driven by an indomitable will to succeed.
