Описание: An insider’s account of the complex relations between the United States and post-Soviet UkraineThe Eagle and the Trident provides the first comprehensive account of the development of U.S. diplomatic relations with an independent Ukraine, covering the years 1992 through 2004 following the collapse of the Soviet Union. The United States devoted greater attention to Ukraine than any other post-Soviet state (except Russia) after the breakup of the Soviet Union. Steven Pifer, a career Foreign Service officer, worked on U.S.-Ukraine relations at the State Department and the White House during that period and also served as ambassador to Ukraine. With this volume he has written the definitive narrative of the ups and downs in the relationship between Washington and newly independent Ukraine.The relationship between the two countries moved from heady days in the mid- 1990s, when they declared a strategic partnership, to troubled times after 2002. During the period covered by the book, the United States generally succeeded in its major goals in Ukraine, notably the safe transfer of nearly 2,000 strategic nuclear weapons left there after the Soviet collapse. Washington also provided robust support for Ukraine’s effort to develop into a modern, democratic, market-oriented state. But these efforts aimed at reforming the state proved only modestly successful, leaving a nation that was not resilient enough to stand up to Russian aggression in Crimea in 2014.The author reflects on what worked and what did not work in the various U.S. approaches toward Ukraine. He also offers a practitioner’s recommendations for current U.S. policies in the context of ongoing uncertainty about the political stability of Ukraine and Russia’s long-term intentions toward its smaller but important neighbor.

Sandpiper Run by Linda J Pifer
"Each session is like opening an old book to the first page; it always begins the same." Sunnie Reynolds
While on vacation with her parents at the age of ten, Sunnie Reynolds disappeared on a small island in Florida. She was found ten hours later, asleep and draped over a tree stump in a marsh. Returned to her parents, they put her into bed, but it was the last full night's sleep she would expertience. A repeating nightmare began to awaken her each night into adulthood.
She found ways to make up sleep and graduated high school. She chose real estate over college and went on to get her license, still influenced by chronic sleep deprivation and phobias of an unknown trauma. She continued therapy, but began to lose faith in it.
At the age of twenty-two, during a business trip to the Gulf coast of Florida, Sunnie made a startling discovery and the nightmare entered reality to challenge her. Though at first overcome with panic, she gained strength to resist her fear with the guidance of her therapist and help from a new-found friend who'd lived on the island all of his life.

If you love mysteries and family history in the style of Maeve Binchy, don't miss this final book in the Windows trilogy.
The Smith family learns in 2011 they likely will lose Highbridge, their ancestral estate in North Yorkshire unless they find a way to generate income. They plan to build a water-wheel mill for craft flours on the Copper Swift River and a small cafe inside with their remaining funds; the Estate's fate rests on their success.
Two generations face life-style change including Stephen Smith's only son, Thomas and his fiancee Sarah, an American hired to research the family's genealogy.
A mysterious prowler turns up at the oddest times in the old manor house looking for treasure and an unexpected helper begins to assist.
"Family values, faith, the will to succeed and a surprising discovery make this final look at the Smith family a poignant, but optimistic experience." Linda J Pifer
