Gary Tillery presents a coherent view of Elvis' thoughts through such anecdotes and other recorded facts. We learn, for instance, that Elvis read thousands of books on religion; that his crisis over making mindless movies like Girl Happy led him to writers such as Gurdjieff, Krishnamurti, and Helena Blavatsky; and that, while driving in Arizona, an epiphany inspired him to learn Hindu practice. Elvis came to believe that the Christ shines in everyone and that God wanted him to use his light to uplift people.

In the lawless Chaco region of Bolivia, former Delta Force operator Case Lee discovers a village living in terror under mercenaries and spies. When he makes a stand alongside a mysterious ally, he triggers the wrath of a powerful tycoon who will stop at nothing to protect his global empire. The trail races back to the wilds of Nevada, where corrupt politicians, dirty cops, and shadowy espionage agencies line up against him. Outnumbered and outgunned, Case calls in his tight-knit band of ex-Delta brothers — and together they bring very special skills to the fight.

John Lennon called himself a working class hero. George Harrison was a working class mystic. Born in Liverpool as the son of a bus conductor and a shop assistant, for the first six years of his life he lived in a house with no indoor bathroom. This book gives an honest, in-depth view of his personal journey from his blue-collar childhood to his role as a world-famous spiritual icon.

Here, for the first time, is the spiritual odyssey of this remarkable artist. Mining Lennon’s lyrics, poetry, prose, and interviews, Gary Tillery tracks his thinking as it evolved from his troubled, working-class childhood throughout his many roles as Beatle, peacenik, and social activist.

Case Lee, meet the Cartel. It gets ugly.

The rulers’ mistakes are paid for with the blood of the people. This is shown in history both recent and ancient, time and time again. It was no different for an Austrian mountain farmer’s son who was thrown into the carnage of the Eastern Front.
