Book Description
Named to Kirkus Reviews "Best of 2013" and Amazon's "Hot, New Releases in 2013", this inspiring look at American exceptionalism in Iraq was recently featured in the Air Force Times. Seen through an airman's lens, Major Banzet describes the USAF's efforts to build a credible, accountable partner in the deserts of the Middle East. Through humor and tragedy, Major Banzet describes the hidden efforts of the American, British and desperately courageous Iraqis to build a new Air Force out of war and destruction. With a perceptive eye and rare wit, he compares the two cultures; both aiming to rebuild and grow the next generation of the young Iraqi men and women that could determine the fate of the Middle East for the next fifty years.

Beautiful blossoms flourish in the front of the Floreria Roma-- but dangerous plans are blooming in the back room. Harry, an un-employed American newspaper reporter, comes to Mexico to have a good time. He wants to see the sights, play golf, go fishing, and hit the beach. His first night in Mexico City he has dinner with Rosa, a blue-eyed blonde Mexican girl, and he stumbles on a body in the back of the restaurant. From then on, he and Rosa are forced to fight for their lives, caught in the middle of a complex Cold War conspiracy to sabotage and eventually to take over Pemex, the government oil monopoly. Within days of arriving Harry has three job offers, including an offer from Rosa's boss at the Floreria Roma, and another for a part time job with United Press. When he visits the back room of the flower shop he discovers that the conspiracy goes well beyond the Pemex takeover and includes assassination and catastrophic global disorder.

What if you are nineteen, agonizingly shy, and need to get a job? Lacking a lighthouse in New Mexico, Gwendolyn Springfield applies for a job at the local flower shop and gets it. She tries to hide from the world, but the world, alas, comes to her. Weddings, funerals, gatherings large and small; all of them parade through her door-and into her life. She sees-and hears-it all. Meet Marjorie Wilkes, the Boss. She doesn't understand the "invisible cage" Gwen constantly finds herself in. Then there's Mrs. Hardcouer, the town troublemaker. All the townsfolk unload on Gwen, but to whom does she confide? The Flower Shop unfolds like a Willa Cather Novel: slow, with the sweep of insight and understanding gathered up at the end. Through others, Gwen comes to know herself. This novel is not recommended for girls under fifteen.
