We Salute You: World War II Veterans from Central Iowa Share Their Experiences
Product Details
Description"I have been an advocate for WWII veterans recording their experiences for future generations for many years. I believe generations to come need to know what cost and sacrifice these men and women endured to protect our country and world. They sacrificed years of their lives and many gave their lives for our country. Most veterans look back on their experiences in the military as building blocks for the rest of their lives. I believe that each veteran is a library, and when that veteran is gone, it is like the library is burned."
Grails: Visitations of the Night

Free Space
DescriptionIt is the twenty-third century, and large space habitats have evolved where individual societies exist without formalized government-a galactic federation called Free Space. These are stories of the men and women of this new era, visions of adventure, social speculations, and downright arguments about freedom and responsibility. Free Space offers fiction from Hugo and Nebula Award winners such as Poul Anderson, Gregory Benford, and Robert J. Sawyer, and particularly from winners of the Prometheus Award of the Libertarian Futurist Society, such as Victor Koman, Daffyd ab Hugh, and L. Neil Smith. In addition, there is work from William F. Buckley, Jared Lobdell, John Barnes and a number of other writers, making Free Space a big, rich, varied compendium of politically-engaged science fiction adventure.
This is a libertarianist anthology of (mostly) original stories that, depending on your tastes, can be too narrowly focused or wonderfully concentrated. The "Free Space" in the title is just that: a loose federation of space habitats that has no central government. Free enterprise rules, and the editors let 20 authors ranging from William F. Buckley Jr. to William F. Wu have their way with it. The result is mixed, but on the whole successful, and it definitely makes for interesting reading. Several of the writers are winners of the Libertarian Futurist Society's Prometheus Award. Kramer Edward News![]()
