Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On January 12, 2010, the deadliest earthquake in the history of the Western Hemisphere struck the nation least prepared to handle it. Jonathan M. Katz, the only full-time American news correspondent in Haiti, was inside his house when it buckled along with hundreds of thousands of others. In this visceral, authoritative first-hand account, Katz chronicles the terror of that day, the devastation visited on ordinary Haitians, and how the world reacted to a nation in need. More than half of American adults gave money for Haiti, part of a monumental response totaling $16.3 billion in pledges. But three years later the relief effort has foundered. It's most basic promises—to build safer housing for the homeless, alleviate severe poverty, and strengthen Haiti to face future disasters—remain unfulfilled. The Big Truck That Went By presents a sharp critique of international aid that defies today's conventional wisdom; that the way wealthy countries give aid makes poor countries seem irredeemably hopeless, while trapping millions in cycles of privation and catastrophe. Katz follows the money to uncover startling truths about how good intentions go wrong, and what can be done to make aid "smarter." With coverage of Bill Clinton, who came to help lead the reconstruction; movie-star aid worker Sean Penn; Wyclef Jean; Haiti's leaders and people alike, Katz weaves a complex, darkly funny, and unexpected portrait of one of the world's most fascinating countries. The Big Truck That Went By is not only a definitive account of Haiti's earthquake, but of the world we live in today.

Book excerpt: In Big Truck War I (Jarhead) Jeffery Maxwell with five compatriots using all their fellow drivers blockade the ports, international crossings, local highways, freeways across the nation. Then "Head" does somthing radical, it starts "The Big Truck War." This story is 21,958 words. In Big Truck War II (Revenge) Jarhead sees the hell-fire missile fired from underneath the Cobra Attack Helicopter. He knew instinctively what it was. He dives into his giant buddy's Hoss side sending them both off the charging speedboat into the cold waters of Baja, Mexico. After reviving Hoss the guys grab some wreckage floating up the coast. It's weighing heavily on Maxwell; his two men killed by the rocket. And he knows an attack on a Government instillation is suicide, but no one has ever accused Head of "good judgment." This story is 28,716. In "King Nicotine" "Lucky" Mahorn with his babe "Ace" Kami Spade along with sidekick Joe Rambo bring the outlawed tobacco into the states. It's year 2103; a new four month yearly calendar is introduced, along with a new pro racing motor track. A very violent new game called "Crunch" is featured. This story is 12,538 words. The last story I'd like the title to read "Nuclear Animal." It features Joe Mama with Maximum Hassle and the final games & meals, songs. The games are ICBM-Darts, Cruise Mussile Horseshoes, Stealth Bomber Hide & Seek. And Mutant hunting, these apply we say if some mutated humans actually live. This story is 8,430 words.
