The Don Connors Chapter of Veterans for Peace, St. Louis and Left Bank Books are pleased to present David Swanson for a discussion and book signing of Daybreak: Undoing the Imperial Presidency and Forming a More Perfect Union. A lot more has gone wrong over the last eight years than meets the eye, and it will take more than a new president to create the kind of change that is necessary. Daybreak is a thorough investigation of how Bush/Cheney altered the way American government works and deteriorated the Constitution and Bill of Rights. It includes clear plans for how we may reclaim democracy, declare our rights, and truly set out for a new America. David Swanson is co-founder of AfterDowningStreet.org, creator of ConvictBushCheney.org, Washington director of Democrats.com, and a board member of Progressive Democrats for America. He served as press secretary for Dennis Kuckinch's 2004 presidential campaign and has been a leading voice for the prosecution of Bush and Cheney for war crimes. | 23

Vividly capturing Mongolia's timeless elements and natural beauty, When Things Get Dark is Matthew Davis's deeply honest account of living and working among the people of this large, underpopulated country. Set within a small, western Mongolia provincial capital called Tsetserleg, When Things Get Dark documents the rapid changes this town is experiencing from its traditional existence in the countryside to a more urban, modern identity. Natural disasters killed millions of animals and forced herders into cities. The Internet arrived. And Mongolians balanced their nomadic roots, their communist past, and their democratic, free-market future. Matthew Davis was born in Chicago and attended the University of Missouri's School of Journalism. He was a Peace Corps volunteer in Tsetserleg, Mongolia, and lived for a year in the Mongolian capitoal of Ulaanbaatar. | 24
