Our perception of the original North American Indians, natives or indigenous people of North America, is usually based on the first pictures of them taken between 1850 and the First World War. Our first description of these people was written by those who were exploring for future country's developments into these wilds and not by the fur trappers, hunters and adventures who came first. Lewis and Clarke described what and who they saw and drew pictures of both flora and fauna, but they did not take pictures. It was the later black and white pictures that we would remember the most. It is from these first pictures that has formed our sense of curiosity and knowledge of how they dressed, their weapons and their customs. But they had already been touched by those first fur trappers and explores who changed the Indians way of life from their first day of contact. Some already had rifles, gun powder, flint and balls, English knives, Boston shirts, European beads when the first documentarians arrived to describe them.In The LAST BOOK OF CHIMACUM the author had drawn from the writing of the first explorers to put together a written account of those people, and, especially the natives of the Olympic Peninsula, the last of the untouched tribes of America, and what happened to one of those tribes that disappeared.All of the Native North American Indians have now been identified and documented. Then I discovered the Chimacum Indians of the Olympic Peninsula on Washington State's northwest coast no longer exist, either in a reservation setting or linage.With this book I decided to do something about that and learn why they no longer exist.

Having lived through the Second World War I was familiar with the slang word "Jap" for the Japanese during and after the war. But it's been many decades since I last heard or read the word. This story brought it all back to me as I edited content from Mr. Cox's story, its writer. For effect, and with no malice, I've left its spelling intact, for it was as Mr. Cox intended, for the crew of the US Submarine Grenadier (SS210) suffered greatly after their capture, some even died at their capture's hands.This isn't about submarines during World War Two so much as it is about what happened to its crew after they were captured by the Japanese after their submarine sank. Its author was just a guy who got caught up in a war and wrote about it. He was an average American kid who wanted to be a happy and healthy American fellow someday. He didn't want to become a giant of industry, nor did he. What he did do was try to win a war. He never won an Oscar or wrote the all American novel. He never won a gold medal and he wasn't even a great student. But he was "damaged" during the war. He was just one of the "Greatest Generation" and an ex-pow who left his story for us to read. He was a hero to most who knew him and also to me after I read his story.This is a story about sailors who were captured and interned during World War Two and what happened after they were released. Gordon Cox's endless war was just not surviving the torture at the hands of the Japanese during WWII, which is an appalling record of brutality: disease, starvation, slave labor, amounting to one of the greatest atrocities of the twentieth century, but what happened after the war. This is a story of how we learned about Concentration Camp Syndrome and PTSD, post-traumatic stress syndrome. As much as the Japanese would like to forget it the story of each POW is unique, every last one of them a man trapped in the valley of the shadow of death, struggling to stay alive and stay human. With this story, in Gordon Cox's own words, we'll take you through the last eighty years and the history of the lasting effects of that war.

The author was asked to bring forth the facts of Windjammer's demise and present them. This authorized the three Letters of Marque to investigate and present those facts so they can now be judged. The author pulls back the family curtain of privacy to reveal the inner workings of Windjammer Barefoot Cruises, or "Burke's Navy", as some crew in the company called Burke's Windjammers. Burke's Navy was at one time the largest fleet of cruising sailing ships in the world. Though aged and sometimes poorly maintained, they continued to sail the Caribbean, and sometimes the world. That is until Captain Mike Burke, the owner and originator of the Windjammer Barefoot Cruises, turned the company over to his adult children. Then the ships became as glass and started to crack and tumble as the company came to ruin. What was written in the newspapers about Windjammers demise was only the surface of what Marque found when he went to investigate its implosion.Learn how the largest modern day sailing ship fleet afloat floundered and was run aground by greed, circumstances and incompetence by pirates of privilege.
