I don't normally do this, but here is a link to the electronic typeset version of the book that the publisher sent me (Adobe Acrobat format).

If you have Acrobat reader, you can read it fine. This doesn't have the covers attached, only the text. Ignore the non-printing characters on the first several pages.

About "In The Beginning":
When a retired Seal, Mike Angel, discovers an inexpensive new space drive and begins launching satellites from his suburban back yard, the local law takes notice. When he refuses to turn his invention over to the military, the government takes notice. When he blackmails the American and Russian governments into helping him with the first manned expedition to Mars, the world takes notice.
In the Beginning opens in the very near future with a hero who has developed a way to generate and control gravity using a combination of existing technologies. He manages to threaten and cajole the governments of both the United States and the Russian Federation into backing him and providing a crew of international scientists to accompany him and Vesna, his AI computer, on the first civilian expedition to Mars.
