Als GI kämpfte Brandon Condley im Vietnamkrieg. Seither fühlt er sich diesem fremden Land zutiefst verbunden, denn in Vietnam fand er sein größtes Glück - und musste die schrecklichste Tragödie erleben: die Studentin Mai bezahlte die verbotene Liebe zu dem amerikanischen Soldaten mit ihrem Leben. Über zwanzig Jahre sind vergangen, als Condley wieder im Auftrag der Regierung in Vietnam zum Einsatz kommt: Er soll die sterblichen Überreste gefallener GIs identifizieren. Doch dann führt ein rätselhafter Leichenfund Brandon zurück in die Vergangenheit, und eine erbitterte Jagd auf einen alten Gegner beginnt ..

Prosperity is something we aspire to achieve. However, it often seems just out of reach. Brief, fulfilling moments punctuate a mundane life. True prosperity eludes up because we have let others define it for us, because we've searched for it in the wrong places, and because we haven't had the tools to attain it. This inspiring, practical book provides the framework that you can use to define prosperity on your own terms. "The Soul of Prosperity" enables you to discover your authentic self. It equips you with the ability to identify and eliminate unconscious bias, such as self-condemnation, that blocks your prosperity. You will recognize yourself in these pages and understand fulfillment is more effortless than you've ever imagined. These insights will help you to create a "roadmap" to your own prosperity using the practical tools this book provides, and will inspire and encourage you in ways that will make your journey to your good easy and joyful.

Former Secretary of the Navy, Navy Cross recipient, and Marine officer James Webb lit the fires of controversy with this startling inside look at life at the U.S. Naval Academy when A Sense of Honor was first published in 1981. Some of his fellow Academy graduates attacked it as exaggerated and extreme, but Webb's portrayal of a gung-ho first classman's campaign to shepherd an unprepared plebe through the academy's complex and unforgiving ethos was hailed as a "considerable achievement" by the New York Times and "a remarkable moral statement" by the Boston Globe .
