Book Description
In 1988, I had a dream about this book from beginning to end. I got up and prayed, "Lord, what is going on in my mind." The Lord told me to just write what you see in your dream; I wrote my second page. I felt like I had finished the book, but Gold to me, "No, sleep until you do what I tell you to do." So, I began to write a little more each day. After writing five or six pages, realized God was doing something in my life. The more I wrote the more I wanted to write, so I wrote for days and nights, weeks and months.At one point, I wrote to Oprah Winfrey and asked her to help me with my unfinished book she replied, "Finish your book and then stay in contact because get letters like this from so many people." The staff thanked me for watching the show, but I kept praying and hoping that someday, God would bless me to complete and publish my book. On November 2077, God spoke and said, "It is time to finish and publish your book."This book is based on the life of poor men and women, who were nearing freedom from slavery. They chose to stay on the plantation and not become free because it gave them a place to work. The men and women lived in hut houses, and were allowed days for town, church, and school. Shortly, after the years passed, their children moved away to the North, East, West. Although the men and women began to prosper, they taught them to always tell their children's children about their forefathers encounters.

A Bright Shining Lie
Author: Neil Sheehan
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0679603808
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 898
Book Description
One of the most acclaimed books of our time—the definitive Vietnam War exposé and the winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award. When he came to Vietnam in 1962, Lieutenant Colonel John Paul Vann was the one clear-sighted participant in an enterprise riddled with arrogance and self-deception, a charismatic soldier who put his life and career on the line in an attempt to convince his superiors that the war should be fought another way. By the time he died in 1972, Vann had embraced the follies he once decried. He died believing that the war had been won. In this magisterial book, a monument of history and biography that was awarded the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Nonfiction, a renowned journalist tells the story of John Vann—"the one irreplaceable American in Vietnam"—and of the tragedy that destroyed a country and squandered so much of America's young manhood and resources.
