Synopsis Pete Ellis by : Dirk Anthony Ballendorf
Few men have had more impact on Marine Corps history than Earl Hancock "Pete" Ellis - and none have been more controversial. Sometimes called the father of amphibious warfare, he left behind a legacy tainted by subterfuge and mystery, and his suspicious death in Micronesia in 1923 has gone unexplained for more than seventy years. This book - the result of decades of research worldwide - provides the answers, often disputing long-accepted but unsubstantiated accounts of his life and death. Was Ellis poisoned by the Japanese secret police as many historians assert, or did he drink himself to death as islanders claim? What happened to his mission notes? Was the mission sanctioned by the top U.S. military officials? Did his plans and ideas help save the Marine Corps from extinction? These and many other questions about this brilliant but troubled Marine are answered and substantiated for the first time, using family papers, fitness reports, Japanese sources, and eyewitness interviews never before available. As this biography chronicles a tragic human drama, it also records the corps's transition from naval infantry to (after Ellis's death) an amphibious assault force that was the key to one of the greatest naval campaigns in history.

Synopsis 21st Century Ellis by : Brett Friedman
For years, the Marine Corps has touted the prescience of Lt. Col. “Pete” Ellis, USMC, who predicted in 1921 that the United States would fight Japan and how the Pacific Theater would be won. Now the works of the “amphibious prophet” are collected together for the first time. Included are Ellis’ essays on naval and amphibious operations that the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps would use to win the war against Imperial Japan, as well as his articles about counterinsurgency and conventional war based on his experiences in the Philippines and in Europe during World War I. As the United States focuses on the Pacific once again, Friedman presents Ellis’ ideas as a case study to inform current policymakers about the dynamics of strategy and warfare across the vast reaches of the Pacific. This collection reveals Ellis to be a thinker who was ahead of his time in identifying concepts the U.S. military struggles with even today.

Synopsis Flirting with Pete by : Barbara Delinsky
In Flirting with Pete, bestselling author Barbara Delinsky weaves together two fascinating narratives that merge in a dramatic, highly emotional, and totally unexpected conclusion, as a daughter's struggle to win the approval of the father she never knew becomes a journey of self-discovery. Psychologist Casey Ellis never met her father—but that didn't stop her from following in his professional footsteps. Now he has died, and Casey is shocked to have inherited his elegant Boston town house, complete with a maid and a handsome, enigmatic gardener. When she finds a manuscript that could be a novel, a journal, or a case study of one of her father's patients in her new home, she becomes engrossed in the story of Jenny, a young woman trying to escape her troubled life. Convinced the story is true and that her father left it as a message for her, Casey digs deeper. As she pieces together the mysteries surrounding her father, Jenny, and the romantic new stranger in her life, she discovers startling links between past and present, and unexpected ties between what is real and what is imagined.
