This is a true story, written by a man who experienced it personally. It’s about a secret organization within the United States Air Force during the Vietnam War. They flew over the Ho Chi Minh trail in Laos. They were fast Forward Air Controllers or FAC pilots who called themselces “Misty Pilots” for reasons you will find when you read this book. I couldn’t put it down, it is a real pager turner. I recommend this book for those who love flying and are interested in history too. These brave men who flew the F-100 ”Huns” over hostile “Indian Country” of North Vietnam and Laos. General Don Shepperd and Rick Newman did an outstanding job writing this book. There are familiar names who most of us know, but didn’t know they were “Misty Pilots”. Let me know what you think after you read it.
Knowing Patricia Eisenhauer over a decade has been a delight. She has provided me with constant advise as my minister and a professional colleague in the real estate industry as well. Pat gives a unique perspective to her readers from the inside regarding the “topsey turvey” world of real estate.
Being a real estate broker isn’t as much of a career as it is a life style. You’ll laugh, cry and get angry while reading this “Tell all” book. I strongly recommend this book for all who enjoy learning about life and new things. Pat Eisenhauer is a very good writer and knows how to touch your heart. Perhaps this is because she is a ordained minister, a real estate broker, an Author and most of all a friend to all who meet her.
Everyone who is old enough to remember the Richard Nixon presidency can remember the high flying financier Robert Vesco, who elluded the United States authorities and the SEC for many years. In this book Captain “Ike” Eisenhauer tells a story as he saw it from the pilot’s seat of Vesco’s customized $3.5 million Boeing 707 private Jetliner. Captain “Ike” saw it all and transported some of the most influencial people in the world aboard ”The Silver Phyliss” until it all went wrong and “Ike” found himself concerned for his own life, and with “Balls of steel”, searched, found and recaptured the Boeing returning it back to the United States for the U. S. Authorties.
What ever happened to Vesco, Donald Nixon (Persident Richard M. Nixon’s Brother) and ”The Silver Phyliss”? Find out read this book. I highly recommend The Flying Carpetbagger. I’ve read it three times, and I never read books more than once. Well, until now anyway.
This book will tell you about history that History Books won’t.

Roger Warner first published this book under the title of “Back Fire” The CIA’s secret war in Laos and it is linked to the war in vietnam. The main Character is Bill Lair who should have been celebrated as a war hero, but since he was a secret agent of the CIA he didn’t get any credit at all, mostly because we weren’t supposed to be there. This is a book about the war in the Laotian mountains between 1961 and 1973. Roger Warner has also made a documentary with Bill Lair when they returned to Laos many years later. This is a book that all Americans should read because the reality of it is, our federal government always has a secret agenda and you would be appalled to know exactly what you don’t know.
Perry Gamsby captures the true essence of man living his dream in a third world country.
How many people actually get to live their dreams? Not many, I wager. My friend Perry Gamsby did, and wrote a book about his extraordinary life. He married an exotic beautiful native woman and lived on a paradise Island in the South Pacific. This is a great book. It will make you laugh until you cry and cry until you laugh uncontrollably and maybe even fall on the floor. The most fascinating thing about it… it is all true. You will learn about life in the Philippines and about their multi-level culture and what makes the Filipina such a wonderful wife. I know because I got one too, and I’ve been to the Philippines many times. This “Aussie” can really tell a story. He is the only writer I know who can write a whole chapter on toilet paper and make the reader want more. Yes, it is all true and hilarious. You must read this book. Afterward you will want to experience it yourself. For more info. click here www.streetwisephilippines.com
An old saying is: The only consistant in this world is CHANGE itself! This book, “Who moved my cheese?”, was given to me as a gift when I was the CEO of a multi-million dollar corporation. When I read this book it changed my life and my perception of life and my job as well. It is my opinion: Everyone should read this book. There are only 94 pages but it is filled with a profound lesson. If you apply an understanding to your life, you will never be blindsided again.
Spencer Johnson, MD. has written many books that have helped many people, but none as profound as this one. After reading this book I bought a dozen copies and gave them to friends and relatives. The truth he presents in this book will chaange you life too.
