David Gleason the opportunity to study and observe first hand, not only the rapidly changing history of his beloved America, but also a unique insight that allows him to compare the striking similarities between turn of the last century Russia and turn of this century America. Upon retiring from the communications field in 2001, Gleason began to intensify his historical research and dedicate himself to writing. The result has been two biographies, Why Russia: A Nostalgic Old World Adventure and Why Alaska: Life on the Last Frontier, co-authored with his long time wife, DeAnn. His latest books have been novels. The Fraternity: Alaskan and Russian Roulette, a mystery who-done-it and Trust Me: A Blueprint for Revolution, an unsettling prediction of the emerging world of today, realistically entwine fast paced, high tech crime fiction with some of the past and present history of Alaska, America, and Russia.view less
