The Sagas of Icelanders by Thorsson Ornolfur [Editor]; Smiley Jane [Preface]; Kellogg Robert [Introducti

Years of mismanagement, corruption, and unwarranted military interventions in national affairs have left the country in an abysmal pit; efforts to move forward seem so little compared to the journey ahead. The enormity of the problem leaves many presidents little choice but to tinker around the edges of the national economic, political, and social issues. I believe it is time for bold programs to give the much needed jolt to our economy just as the Akosombo dam and Tema harbour did to our economy in the 1960s. The way to extricate ourselves from this morass is to take bold action. This book proposes a way out of this quagmire.
JANE SMILEY is the author of many books for adults, including Private Life, Horse Heaven, and the Pulitzer Prize-winning A Thousand Acres. She was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 2001.
Jane lives in Northern California, where she rides horses every chance she gets. She is also the author of four other novels for young readers in the Horses of Oak Valley Ranch series: The Georges and the Jewels, A Good Horse, True Blue, and Pie in the Sky.
