"SPUR AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR. Buffalo Soldier Odyssey is an inspiring story, based on true events, of men born into slavery, then rising above the legacy of their past to meet the challenges of newfound freedom in the face of adversity and deeply rooted racism.

Freedom following the Civil War destruction of the plantation where Isaac "Ike" Casey was born and raised plunges the young man into a rapidly evolving world of violence and uncertainty. Directionless, he wanders the South in isolation, hunger, and clothing so badly worn he occasionally approaches nakedness. A chance encounter with a short-handed ship's captain provides Ike with a non-paying job aboard a cargo vessel. At journey's end, he finds himself deep in Texas. There, he is approached by a recruiting officer of the Ninth Regiment of Cavalry of the United States Army.

Joining on the promise of three square meals a day, decent clothing, and $13 per month in pay, Ike begins an odyssey that will take him from a lifetime of passive servitude to one of strength and confidence as a member of the fabled Buffalo Soldiers. Through Private--then Corporal--Casey, we witness life in Company D of the Buffalo Cavalry--and the hardship and privation that plagued the black troopers, as well as their burgeoning pride as they face danger across the Texas frontier. They proved their mettle in scores of encounters with bandits and Indians as they escorted stagecoaches and wagon trains to far-flung outposts and protected the ever-expanding fringes of civilization against a savage land."

Incredibly Useful. Repurchased for version 2.0
Format: Paperback
I was recommended this Handbook by an Incident Responder with over 10 years experience (whom was also recommended it within his professional network). I've been utilizing version 1.0 of this handbook for almost 3 months now and, I must say, it's the perfect field manual not only for Incident Responders but for any class of Information Security Professional. Back in college I started crafting a reference manual of my own wishing I had something like this. I'm happy to see that I wasn't the only person when I was recommended this Handbook. Initially my only wish was for it to have had reference diagrams for common packet headers. However, shortly after that I learned of version 2.0. For that reason, I immediately purchased version 2.0.

Not Perfectly Pocket Size, but Sufficient
Format: Paperback
Fits in the jump bag & a zip lock to protect the pages - Crafted my own pocket flap inserts to add personal notes for my employer on large index cards (org chart by title with penciled in names, numbers & schedules); IT LAN map with details on each system in case it is needed in a jiff (except passwords - don't be stupid!) It didn't help me pass the minors, but I am a non-military female. I don't think God could have gotten me through those men who love to fail women!
