NEWS FLASH:
www.amazon.com now has the exclusive right to sale my first e-book in its Kindle Store.

A paperback and hardcover version of the book was available since 2007. I believe it was since 2007. I do not know for sure. It was copyrighted in 2007. That edition had one comment and that comment was very negative receiving a one star rating.

Here is that comment in its entirety and without change from the site:
“A poorly self aggrandizing working of ficition. November 8, 2012
By Robert M. Stanford
Format: Hardcover
I should prefix this by saying that I know the author of this book. To start regardless of how this book this being marketed by the author, it is a piece of fiction, the author never served in the military in capacity. Where to start with this review, the book is very poorly written and the author clearly did not do much in the way of historical research on military tactics in general or the Vietnam war in particular. The book reads much like a bad war movie mixed with some kind of cheesy martial arts film, the battle scenes are ridiculously unrealistic. Including laughably bad claims like how the author was trained in hand to hand combat techniques where he would be able to kill some one with one punch in less than one second, he selected for the group because he was genius with Forest Gump like running ability, doing three hours of weight training for 6 straight days a week for months, claims of gun with finger printer readers that only let the owner fire them, ect. Save yourself some money and avoid this book”
Robert does indeed know me. However, it goes a little deeper. Robert is my nephew—the first born of my younger sister. She is four years younger than I am. I was working for a living teaching school when she graduated from Illinois State University. She didn’t meet her future husband until she was working as a teacher. Therefore, Robert wasn’t even born during the time period of most of the book. Robert also never served in the military. Neither did his father or mother.
I do state that I have a tested I.Q. of 130 or above. Both of my children have tested I.Q.s of 130 or above. Does that prove that I do? Of course not. Therefore, before I wrote the book, I went to the public school district that I attended from first grade through high school. I asked for and received a copy of my school records including the results of an I.Q. test. I have written proof that I have a tested I.Q. of 130 or above. If I didn’t, I would not have put it in the book. However, I never said, anywhere in the book, that I am a genius.
As far as his statement that “the book is very poorly written.” That is, at best, an opinion. Read again what he wrote. How well written are his comments? I was a high school American government/economics teacher for ten years. Having been a teacher, I am use to negative comments from students. Most of those comments were from people who did not do well in my class. I expected the students to earn their grade through work and meeting my standards. If they did not, they suffered the consequences. Most did not like the consequences.
If you read the dedication page, I paid an English teacher to edit the work. We did each of the six chapters the same way. At the time, I lived in Tucson and she lived in Arkansas where she taught high school English. I mailed a chapter to her, she ripped it to shreds. I corrected and rewrote the chapter based upon her suggestions and sent the rewritten chapter back to her. She found more items to criticize and gave more suggested corrections. I corrected a second time and sent them back once again. She approved the chapter and mailed it back. When Robert states that “the book is very poorly written,” he criticizes her. I do not believe those criticisms are justified.
Concerning the publication of the book itself, I did not want to go through a regular publishing house because I did not want the book to be edited by the publisher. Since I did not know how to publish a book, I hired a publishing company to do the actual printing of the book and the creation of the front and back book covers. When the company rejected my print copy because the margins were wrong several times including after I went to a Peoria printer to have the margins done correctly by a professional, I wrote the CEO of the company saying I was cancelling the contract because the company was not fulfilling its obligation to print the book. Without my knowledge, the book was printed and offered to the public including on Amazon in paperback and hardcover editions. My guess is that a company lawyer told the CEO that he had better fulfill the contract. I did not know the book was in distribution until I received a royalty check from the company. The copyright date on this published version of the book is 2007.
In the mean time, after borrowing money from my mother, I went to the Peoria printer and paid that company to print my book under my Arizona established publishing company. I had established the company in Arizona before moving back to Illinois in 2004. I never planned to live in Illinois—the land of Barack Hussein Obama—permanently. Until this book was published, I had not actually published anything through the company. My book through my publishing company was published in 2008.
Here is a strange occurrence. Robert’s mother—my younger sister—purchased four books in 2008. There are four people in her family—mother, father, brother, sister. I would have thought that Robert would have first read the book in 2008. He certainly did not have to purchase it from Amazon.
It was family squabble time. In 2004, I moved back to Illinois to care for my mother after my father had died. My two sisters and I had a verbal agreement that I would stay in Illinois until mom dies, caring for her in her home. She would not be put into a nursing home. After a series of minor strokes over a period of about a year, my sisters broke the agreement and put her in a home. Conflict resulted over my staying or leaving the house and the State. Discussion was done by e-mail. I stated in one e-mail that I was going to write more Black Sword books—five in total—and the next one would include the current dispute.
In early January of 2012, I received an eviction notice. The process continued through the year until a court date was set for November 30, 2012. (I believe that is the correct date. I did not bother to check to make sure.) On October 15, 2012, my oldest sister died after a brief illness. On November 8, 2012, Robert posted his criticism of the book. Coincidence? On November 30, 2012, I was court ordered to leave the house by midnight on December 31, 2012. On December 31, 2012, I moved out of the house.
If Robert meant to hurt sales of the book, I hope he did. I want the other company to stop selling my book. And the company did send me notice that I am being dropped. Good! I had told them not to publish.
If you read this blog regularly, you may know that I actually write five blogs, six days a week. Not on Sunday.

By the very nature of my blogs, I expect the radical Left, pro-abortion/unborn baby MURDERERS, and pro-homosexual behavior advocates to attack my e-book as well as anything else I wrote and publish. Robert may be the first but I do not expect him to be the last.
The e-book costs only $3.00. The only cheaper price is $2.99 and I do not price my books that way. Everyone should know that $2.99 is actually $3.00. What a sad marketing ploy! Spend the $3.00 to determine whether or not Robert is correct. If a member of Amazon prime, the book is a free selection. You just might be pleasantly surprised. I have received very positive comments from readers including people who have actually been in the military unlike Robert and a student at the United States Naval Academy located in Annapolis, Maryland who is the grandson of a friend.
And finally, I would like nothing better than being reconciled with my sister and the rest of my earthly family. The theme of the second book is family. Planned publication date 2015. The theme of the third book is politics with the planned publication date being 2017. The fourth about education in 2019. And the last and final book in the series, on the church of JESUS, the CHRIST in 2021.

“Why Did this DEA Agent Strike a Woman in the Neck with an M-16 Rifle?
By Survival Joe
A woman in Alpine, Texas (A community of about 6,000 people in West Texas southeast of El Paso—my addition) was subjected to a brutal attack by an overzealous DEA agent earlier this week.
When Llana Lispen and her sister showed up to work a few mornings ago at her sister’s smoke shop, they were greeted by heavily armed DEA agents before even making it inside of their store, The Purple Zone.
DEA agents claim they were executing a nationwide crackdown on synthetic drugs when they showed up at The Purple Zone.
What Lispen says is that as soon as she and her sister showed up to the shop, DEA agents promptly asked for the keys so they could enter the property (Did they show the warrant first? I guarantee, if it was me, I would have read the warrant before they did anything!—my addition).
Before Lispen or her sister even had the chance to respond that there were no keys for the property and that they used smart codes for entry (You know how the DEA agents will testify, Don’t you?—
my addition), the DEA agent in charge instructed other agents to break down the doors of their shop.
Lispen claims that once the agents forced entry, they went around the building disabling all security cameras (Why would they do that unless they did not want a record of what occurred? If that was done?—my addition).
Not only did they disrupt the surveillance footage, they also confiscated cameras, hard drives, cell phones and even some of their firearms (Allowed under the warrant? Are these the actions of a government agency where the individuals are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law?—my addition).
From Lispen’s account, the only thing that she was able to understand about the raid was that they were looking for some kind of documents.
As she told the local news channel News West 9:
‘‘The only information that I could get was they were looking for some type of document, I said, ‘Well, could you please tell me what kind of document that you’re looking for and I can help you?’ But they wouldn’t give me any information (What can be removed should be in the warrant although probably very general!—my addition).’’
As the raid was underway and as her sister watched from the sidewalk, a DEA agent demanded that her sister leave the premises (Does he have the authority to order her off the premises?—my addition), to which Lispen’s sister responded:
‘‘What are you going to do, shoot me (This was not the best response!—my addition)?’
That’s when things got ugly.
As Infowars reported:
‘‘He grabbed her by the shoulders and started roughhousing her (Assault?—my addition),’ Lispen said. ‘My sister has never been arrested, has never had any other problems and she was terrified.’’
Lispen says the situation grew worse after her sister flinched, causing the agent to become even more violent.
‘‘At that moment, he took his foot and tripped her to get her off of her feet and have her down to the ground. One of her feet came flying up and accidentally hit him in the shin,’ Lipsen said. ‘At that time he started saying, ‘Well now you’re assaulting a police officer.’ And he started attacking her more. He took the butt of his M-16 rifle and smashed it into her neck (This is going to be a court case! Or, at least, it should! Someone is obviously lying!—my addition).’’
At that, Lispen said her sister was thrown into handcuffs and then led away as another agent fiercely gripped her neck and kept her in a painful hold.
‘‘She was yelling, ‘Get off of me. You’re hurting me. You’re choking me.’ He had his hand around her neck as he was holding her face into the ground of the neighbor’s property (Excessive force?—my addition),’ Lipsen said.’
Lispen and her sister were charged with three felonies as the DEA claims they were selling illegal substances.
Both women deny the charges (Of course! Planted since the security cameras were allegedly disconnected?—my addition).
When confronted about the alleged brutality, DEA agents denied all allegations (Of course! She said; they said!—my addition. While they did confirm the assault charges and arrest, they claim that any blood found on the scene came after an agent cut himself going into the building (And the mark on the woman’s neck?—my addition).”

Were the security cameras disconnected by DEA? If so, why? Why would a woman deliberately kick an armed government agent with other armed government agents in the vicinity? Does that make sense?
