The purpose of this book is to educate people on the severity of the medical condition that I experienced called Necrotizing Fasciitis, as well as to encourage someone on how to not "get stuck" on your journey but actually "go through" your experience so that you can reach your destination. I will be chronicling various details of my experiences and doing my best to reconcile the lessons I've learned (naturally and spiritually) with how I was able to allow the process to enable me.......not disable me! I was thinking of the best way to breakdown various stages of my experiences, so I decided to use something that all of us HAVE TO experience whether we want to or not. As long as we are alive, every last one of us will experience and endure SEASONS! That's right, fall, winter, spring, and summer. Each one has unique attributes and some are embraced more than the other. However, whether it is the falling off of things in the fall, the death of things in the winter, the rebirth of things in the spring, or even the "fun-in-the-sun" of summer, I have found this to be true, ..all four seasons are necessary and have purpose on this planet! As you read this book, it is my prayer that you will re-examine your seasons and the conditions they have rendered, and be able to discover the God-given necessity of each season.

The United States, argues Michael A. Palmer, is engaged in a political crusade to modernize the Islamic world. Americanism is in the vanguard of modernity's relentless advance, promoting capitalist markets and democratic institutions.

From the nineteenth century through the 1991 war with Iraq, this study of America's expanding role in the Persian Gulf traces the development of American commercial interests in the region and the resulting growth of military and political involvement.

In a grand history of naval warfare, Palmer observes five centuries of dramatic encounters under sail and steam, demonstrating that while abilities to communicate improved, other technologies simultaneously shrank admirals' windows of decision. As a result, naval commanders have never had sufficient means or time to direct subordinates in battle.
