Dr. Shield has spent over 25 years in the ‘timeshare’ and Travel industry. He has long felt that there was a need for a definitive work that pulled no punches when it came to discussing this highly controversial subject of Travel Clubs and the Timeshare industry. As someone who has experienced every aspect of the business from both sides of the fence he felt the need to document the immense progress and development that the industry has made over his short his goal is to provide a better understanding of these great products, not just to perspective and existing owners but to those sales and marketing executives who have a responsibility to present the Travel Club and Timeshare industry
for what it really is—the ultimate vacation vehicles! During his first year in
the industry, he was taught a phrase that has stayed with him throughout his exciting 25 years in the business; “Know the game you're in!”
Whilst this phrase is appropriate for almost any job or career, it is particularly true of the Vacation industry—both from the perspective of the seller or buyer.
If you are about to embark on a career in the Travel industry, this work will give you an insight into the tremendous responsibility and opportunity you have to literally change people's lives for the better! To enable families to enjoy the opportunity to spend valuable time together. Time that once lost can never be recaptured!
Industry statistics report that over 4.4 million households in the USA alone own a week or more of timeshare! Th ere are now over 5,425 beautiful resorts around the world of which over 31% are in the USA. Domestic sales in the USA alone amount to Billions of dollars annually.
Dr. Shield is an award winning photojournalist, author and broadcaster who spent his early years as an archaeologist on the tiny island of Malta.

A highlight of my tour; I return to Stonehenge after a 20 year absence with my wife Rose and her UK family - Daughter Ramona and Granddaughter Ricarda, to celebrate my 79th Birthday! Please click on this picture to visit our YOUTUBE record of this event (http://youtube.com/pjshield ). It was remarkable to see the great improvements to the visitor facilities since my last visit. Parking is FREE, but there is a fee to enter the site itself, however the view is just as good from outside the fence! Passing traffic is drawn to a standstill as everyone wishes to view these amazing stones- so be prepared for a slow crawl.

The Beijing Institute of Graphic Communication
Beautiful letter from Chinese Professor at the Beijing Institute of Graphic Communication
Beijing Institute of Graphic Communication (BIGC) was established in 1978, and has grown up as a general polytechnic university of technology, humanities, arts, and management.
From: Professor Nancy Cao
To:"Dr. Peter J. Shield PhD"

Dear Dr. Shield,
You are an amazing person, and I did a search on you. I want to tell you how you influenced me while growing up on your program on mysteries. I learned much and gained much knowledge about the world and was always wanting to learn more about those archeological finds you unmasked. I truly enjoyed them. I must say that they were part of the impetus that made me a professor and gave me the sense of wonder of discovery.
I would like to find your books and read them if possible. I live in China, where it would be rather difficult to obtain them. Perhaps, if you have any back copies, you would graciously consent to send me a few, to be donated to the Beijing Institute of Graphic Communications in Beijing, China after reading them several times. They would be greatly enjoyed by our students, who also have a vast history of many discoveries still being made today. I wonder if you have participated in any of the research being done in China today. If this is possible, please let me know and I will send you my address. The website for the university is http://www.bigc.edu.cn/ and it has been translated into English.
I was also wondering if any of your works have been translated into Chinese. Dr. Su and I specialize in joint translations for publication in China. We did the book, Read My Lips, No More Taxes by Dan Ostrander about ex-President George W. Bush Sr., a huge success here in China.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
My belated condolences on the loss of a beloved son, as per from your website.

Pope to visit the sacred location where the Shroud was concealed in my novel
Please take the time to enjoy this amazing video coverage of the Pope's visit to the sacred grotto of St. Paul, on the island of Malta. The Pope was following in the footsteps of Pope John Paul II, in 2001. His visit commemorates the shipwreck of St. Paul on the Island over 1900 years ago. You can read all about this sacred grotto in my book "In the Image Of His God", full details of which can be seen below!
Click on You Tube report below to see what prompted me to write "In The Image Of His God"!
Rome Reports has posted this interesting video about flaws in the carbon-14 tests that indicated the Shroud of Turin is not the burial cloth of Jesus.
But Italian scientists now have concluded the 1988 tests were conducted improperly and therefore that their findings — that the shroud is a forgery created in the medieval period — should be rejected and new tests conducted.
Other scientific tests conducted on the shroud indicate it was made in the Holy Land at around the time of the death of Christ.
Click on the Shroud image here to visit the Shroud of Turin Convention Pix.
My sincere thanks to all attendees at the International Shroud of Turin convention held at the Blackwell Hotel, Columbus Ohio University Aug.14-17th 2008, for their warm welcome and in particular to my old friend Rex Morgan who has to take the blame for getting me involved with the Shroud over 30 years ago. Rex co-hosted my original Radio interviews and has written several great books on the subject of the Shroud, which take pride of place in my library. I thank Rex for his friendship and especially for his generous endorsement and kind remarks about my new book "In The Image of His God". Coming from Rex as an internationally recognized author and Shroud expert it is praise indeed. Peter J. Shield PhD.

Peter J. Shield's "World of Unexplained Mysteries"
“Dr. Peter J. Shield has spent over 40 years writing, producing and hosting his “World of Unexplained Mysteries” Radio and Television series. http://worldofunexplainedmysteries.com In 2009 tied the knot with his 7th domestic partner. Peter spent 11 years of his life as a professional Magician, ‘catching bullets between his teeth’ literally!
He has during that time lived and worked in 25 countries around the world. In the 50’s he joined Cambridge Universities archaeological team on the excavation of St. Agathas and St. Paul’s catacombs on the remote island of Malta where this story takes place. In 1987 he became involved with the research team investigating the Shroud of Turin and was intrigued with the search for the truth as to the authenticity of this most sacred object said to be the burial cloth of Christ. Over 29 mysterious deaths have been associated with this most Holy relic! ! All references to the Shroud, The Knights and the investigative study of the sacred cloth are factual including the reported deaths of over 29 of those associated with the Shroud during its recorded history. The source of the image however has yet to be discovered. In “In the Image of His God” Dr. Shield proposes an incredible scenario involving The Knights Templar, Leonardo Da Vinci, Pope John Paul II and a plot by the infamous Illuminati to bring about the downfall of theCatholic Church! His book will be available at amazon.com & Barnes & Noble.com in August 2008. Published by Outskirts Press.
Peter is available by arrangement for Media interviews either in person or by telephone. A complimentary CD of Peter’s historic edited interviews with members of the STURP team is available on request and may be broadcast provided a credit to the new book is mentioned each time a track is played

STOP PRESS _ PublishAmerica, Americas largest book publisher , accepted and published my new Children's Book in three months!! “Don Quixote and the Windmills” from the lens and pen of Dr. Peter J. Shield PhD YOU CAN HAVE A CHILDREN'S PICTURE BOOK READY FOR THE PUBLISHER IN AS LITTLE AS 1 DAY! This is a 25 page Children's picture book. I have used pictures taken across Spain and two paper dolls to create this unique story book. As a devoted fan of Don Quixote, I was fortunate enough to accidently come across his famous windmills on my journey across Spain. My journey also took me to the enchanted village of Rodenas, which quite coincidently is my wife Rose’s maiden name. The two events combined to create this imaginary tale. It is also my intention to include a section at the back of the book with the original images that form the background for my story. As a retired archaeologist and broadcaster who started life as a photojournalist I have a large collection of photographs taken around the world. My aim is to create a series of Children's picture books around the characters of Don Quixote and Sancho, the first of which I have provisionally titled "Don Quixote and the Windmills" I have used my original photographs and then created paintings using photo editing software. The next in the series will see Don and Sancho visit Malta where "The Knight with the Woeful Countenance" will visit the eventual home of the Knight's Templar and the Knights of Malta. It was on the island of Malta that I did my archaeological work in the 50's and based my book on the Shroud of Turin "In the Image of His God - the curse of the Shroud" which I self published last year. I will also create "Don Quixote and the Shroud of Turin", which will explain the history of the Shroud to Children. I am going to hold a series of workshops to teach the art of creating and publishing Children's Picture Books. You can learn more and make a reservation at http://picturethedifference.com
