Press Release Summary = Barbara Ann Derksen, author of 15 books, has just released
Straight Pipes, her latest non-fiction, a devotional for bikers. Unlike any other

leather jacket. It will encourage and motivate all who read it to build a prayer
life, study the Bible, share their vision with others, and disciple new believers.
Endorsed by John Ogden, Chairman of the Board and CEO of Christian Motorcyclists
Association, the book begins with several pages of promises and ends with ideas for

readings that will inspire and open minds to the possibility of walking where God
leads and obeying the promptings of the Holy Spirit to minister and serve.

Reviews -

Straight Pipes is a unique blend of practical application to bikers in the form of a
devotion. Barbara not only identifies with bikers, but is one herself. You will
especially enjoy these devotions as they are relevant and to the point. John Ogden,
Chairman of the Board of Directors/CEO of Christian Motorcyclists Association

Second to None is an interesting and unusual book which gives a unique and very
personal look at the Korean War. What makes this book different from most of this
genre is the intimate and personal quality of each individual story. Each narration
focuses on one or two specific events of combat or related events and is told in the
first-person without embellishment. In fact, the self deprecating humor and
complete honesty of these soldiers as they tell their often horrific stories gives
richness to the text that is refreshing and extremely interesting to read. Colonel
Larry Mayes USAF Retired

Second to None is an excellent book showcasing the integrity, the sacrifice, and the
emotions of our soldiers as they served and defended the rights of the USA in the
war in Korea. If you like/love history, if you know a soldier, if you are
indifferent to our soldiers who are giving their lives for our freedom, you need to
read this book. Jennifer McLeMore, writer
