ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

The authors would first like to thank Doug Campbell for his bravery, integrity, and his many years of service to our country. Thank you to Victoria Toensing and Joe di Genova for their assistance with this project. We are looking forward to many more years of friendship with you all.

We appreciate Adam Bellow, Michael Wilson, Anthony Ziccardi, and the entire team at Post Hill Press for giving us this opportunity and for being a pleasure to work with.

A special thanks to the JustTheNews.com team for their hard work and support during the book writing process. We are grateful to Peter Schweizer and our friends at the Government Accountability Institute: first and foremost, to Tarik Noriega, whose efforts were nothing short of herculean; to Joe Duffus, for his expertise and clever wit; to Steve Post, for his fastidious style and especially for the last minute scrubs; and to Steven Richards and Corey Adamyk for their brilliant research and incredible organization skills. This book would not have been possible without this team’s exhaustive research, thorough editing, careful fact checking, and incredible attention to detail. Thank you, all.

Sincere thanks go to Winston Lambert, Jeff Walburn, Chick Lawson, Bobby Vaughn Jr., Steele Lancaster, M.D., Scott Melbye, and James Rickards (among so many others) for lending their strategic insights. Their help elucidating the extraordinarily complex world that is the international uranium industry was invaluable.

Finally, many thanks and immense gratitude go to our families, for their patience and much needed encouragement. The Solomons (Judy, Josh, Jack, and Marcia Olsen for their unwavering support in the pursuit of truth), and the Bruners (James, Gretchen, Meredith, Julia, Sally, Teddy, and Faith + the Schwarzs, especially Bob and Muriel a.k.a Grand & Grand, for their wisdom, inspiration, and mentorship).

We know it’s not easy being an author’s or a journalist’s “widow.” To Judy and Jillian, our absolute most heartfelt appreciation goes to both of you, with much love.
