This is a collection of essays on a dozen questions that sharply divide Americans today. The background and discussion of each subject includes a brief history of the development of today’s dilemma. Elements of each problem are laid out for the reader, and wrapped up with proposals that find their roots in the thoughts of the country’s founding masters.It begins with the Constitution, and the country’s drift from its provisions. By allowing federal representatives to redirect the Constitution, Americans have experienced four major disruptions of individual freedom. Unless Americans act to reclaim the authority of the people, the US Government will continue its transformation into a centralized government.Four essays review the case for the Constitution and each citizen’s responsibility to maintain it. Eight are treatments of the causes of the change to a new order, and the necessary changes to restore individual freedom. A bonus copy of the Constitution of the United States of America is included for readers’ reference."The Core Question" is a companion to "Malfeasance In Office," which covers a broader range of subjects in more depth. Each volume complements the other.

Based upon true stories told by riders and horsemen employed by the Pony Express, Jake encounters Indians, wolves, snakes, and hardship. He endures searing heat, bone chilling cold, and a raging blizzard during his rides to deliver the mail.As a result of a crippling injury to his father, Jake is forced to leave his family's horse ranch in order to earn money to sustain it. He develops from a homesick boy to a dedicated and responsible young Pony Express carrier.Although the Pony Express operated for a short time, it was the period around the election of Abraham Lincoln and the terrible turmoil among the States regarding slavery. Rapid communication between Washington and California was considered vital. The news of President Lincoln's election was carried across the plains in record time, and the thrilling account of Jake's ride is an historical highlight in the story.Children who love horses will enjoy the major role they play in the tale. Jake develops a close relationship with a special pony that saves him on more than one occasion.Enhanced with 31 story illustrations and filled with action based on true events, this historical novel for children from 8 to 14 provides character development, action, and adventure.
