this book the reader will be allowed to visit the dark side of jail and what goes on inside one. It is about hard-core prisoners
who have nothing to lose, the games they play, and how they assault fellow prisoners or brave jailers. It includes responding
to emergency calls, and how all the madness builds up behind the big steel doors of jail for prisoners and jailers alike.
This book will definitely show some statistics reported and incidents that have occurred.” According to the book description of
Jim Daly’s book Lockdown Madness, “step inside the walls of one of the largest correctional
facilities in the United States and the madness experienced by not only the inmates but also the men and women who are charged
with guarding them. This book details the career of a former Marine and U.S. Army National Guardsman who devoted his entire
career to protecting society from murderers and rapists, drunks and drug addicts. The stories told in this book are true,
and the author makes no apologies for the language and the violence that occurred inside the living, breathing demon known
as a jail. Come inside, if you dare!”
According to one reader of Lockdown Madness,
“After reading this book, I began to wonder how someone could spend so many years working in a jail and not lose their
mind. In my nearly 14 years as a police officer I have arrested hundreds of people and had to deal with their antics for maybe
a couple of hours at a time, so I cannot fathom working inside a jail and dealing with it for 8, 10 or 12 hours a day. It
truly takes a special person to be able to put up with the violence and insanity inside a jail or prison, and my hat goes
off to those men and women who are able to do it, day in and day out. If you have ever wondered what it is like to spend time
in jail, then you MUST read this book!”
According
to one reader of Lockdown Madness, “AWESOME, eye-opener. Never gave jail a thought, it was
a place to lock up the bad guys. You feel you are right there and you have insight of what goes on IN THE CELL. Humorous too.
Great book and I am looking forward to his NEXT book!”
According

to those willing to protect us from the bad guy's being a former jail deputy I can say that this book is dead on the money.
the author did a excellent job.”
According to one reader of Lockdown Madness, “Lockdown
Madness written by Jim Daly has to be one of the most informative and intriguing books that I have ever read on what it is
like in the jails across America. Jim Daly has written a no holds barred book about actual events that he has witness as a
jailer. The stories that Jim Daly relates in Lockdown Madness are shocking, reveling and exciting. Some of the stories will
make you laugh and others will make you realize just how mean and cruel some people really are. This book will enlighten you
as to what happens in the life of jailer, as they have to deal with some of the most vile, rudest, and worst people that society
has to offer. I have visited some on death row, in medium and minimum-security prisons and in jails across Oklahoma and I
can attest to the truthfulness of the events in this book as I have witnessed some of what Jim Daly talks about. Lockdown
Madness will help you realize just how fortunate we are to have people like Jim Daly who sacrifice so much to keep society
safe from all kinds of offenders. Lockdown Madness is truly an eye-opener and a book that I highly recommend that you put
on your must read list.”
According

the wife to an inmate and heard of stories from my husband like those of this author. To hear the side of the jailer is an
extreme eye-opener and demands respect to those who live there lives with the sickest of all human beings! The Author is very
truthful and open as he takes you threw years of his life. I found myself laughing out loud, and other times holding my breath!
I read 75% of the book the first time i opened it! it's a book you will want to read till you finish. This book will be read
more then once by me. Wonderful Job Author, looking forward to your next book!”

a great thriller for all readers who like Law Enforcement stories.”

account of what took place millions of years ago when dinosaurs ruled the Earth. This is an educational experience for most
people. 230 thousand years ago, dinosaurs began to roam the Earth, predator against predator, when it came time to hunting
their prey. This was a unique time in our history, a time of giants, and small predators alike, ferocious beasts of all sizes,
shapes, colors and character. Living and Surviving back then, millions of years ago, was dangerous, treacherous and the fact
that only the strong survived.”

change the lives of many households in America. A dictator, Saddam Hussein, attacked the country of Kuwait with a devastating
force that over ran the country and any opposition it may have had. The 745 Military Police Company answered our country's
call like so many other units did, and that the time finally arrived, to stop this evil Iraqi force from raping, and killing
more innocent people. Over the years we have served with numerous other Military Police Units, the 89th Military Police Brigade
at Fort Hood, Texas, 82nd Airborne Military Police from Ft. Bragg, North Carolina, 21st and 401st Military Police - Nebraska,
the 549th Military Police in Panama, and the 403rd Military Police, whom we worked very close with, and many other outstanding
units.”
According to the book description of
The Mayan Empire - Days of Old, “The crowd would stand at the base of the blood red pyramid
awaiting the spectacular event. The heat was unbearable. Some pro-Indian currents had always denied this had happened. They
said the texts must be lying. The Spaniards probably did exaggerate the sheer numbers of victims to justify a supposedly righteous
war against idolatry. But there is no longer as much doubt about the nature of the killings. Victims had
their hearts cut out or were decapitated, shot full of arrows, clawed, sliced to death, stoned, crushed, skinned, buried alive
or tossed from the tops of temples. Children were said to be frequent victims, in part because they were considered pure and
unspoiled. Many people said, “The reader will also learn just how smart these ancient people were and the hardships
they endured.”
According to the book description of
Police Response to Bio-Hazards, “Bio Hazards is one of the most dangerous threats known to man, it should
always be taken seriously and dealt with properly. With the proper training, knowledge and use of available equipment, most
threats can be reduced in the work place and in everyday life. Police Officers and Fire Rescue Teams are usually the first
responders to any bio hazard. Advanced training for NBC [nuclear, biological and chemical] threats should be considered as
well, it is needed for our emergency personnel as well, especially if weapons are present within the existing threat[s]. A
must read for all people. Note, washing your hands often and regularly will reduce most viruses or infections from occurring.”
According to the book description of
Pyramada, “Egypt has always fascinated me by its countless mysteries and way of life years
ago, as it has numerous people in the world. Egypt is one of the most fertile areas of Africa, and one of the most fertile
of the countries around the Mediterranean Sea. Because it is so fertile, people came to live in Egypt earlier than in most
places, probably around 40,000 years ago. At first there were not very many people, but gradually Egypt became more crowded,
so there was more need for a unified government. Around 3000 BC (5000 years ago), Egypt was first unified under one ruler,
who was called the Pharaoh. This learning series will provide interesting facts and great insight to Ancient Egypt and findings.
From that time until around 525 BC, when Egypt was conquered by the Persians, Egypt's history is divided into six different
time periods. These are called the Old Kingdom, the First Intermediate Period, the Middle Kingdom, the Second Intermediate
Period, the New Kingdom, and the Third Intermediate Period.”
COMANCHE - 1ST ARMY
/ 7TH CAVALRY Comanche was tough, fearless, handsome
and hardcore - as well as the most famous survivor of the Battle of the Little Bighorn. In truth ... Comanche was not the
only horse that survived ... Accounts from warriors at the Little Bighorn say some 7th Cavalry horses also survived and were
taken by tribal warriors after the battle. Comanche, was badly wounded and had been left at the battlefield, giving rise to
the "Lone Survivor" myth. The most
celebrated survivor of the 1876 Battle of the Little Bighorn was a small bay horse with a very big military service record.
Comanche, 925 Lbs. And a 15 hands tall gelding of Mustang and Morgan breeding, ran with a wild horse band that was rounded
