Soldiers of Misfortune, covering World War II, the Korean war, and Vietnam, is a profoundly shocking insight as to what has become of thousands of U.S. POW's during these wars. According to the authors, years of investigative work went into the formulation of the book and it is clearly evident in the text.

Painstaking attention has been given and recorded to remove anyone's doubts of this books authenticity. The authors list a staggering record of POW's forever lost to our enemies, the names of prison camps and gulags where they were held, intricate dates and timelines of events, and eyewitness accounts of vital information pertaining to U.S. soldiers forgotten by our govenment.

In the years following World War II, the Korean war, and Vietnam, the actions by our govenment to conceal data concerning our POW's and it's campaigns to silence anyone investigating the issue is absolutely apalling. This book will define for the reader the gross misuses of power, illegal tactics to manipulate and humiliate citizens seeking honest answers, and the use of outright threats and intimidation to bury the subject forever.

Great credit is due to the authors of this book for their courage and perseverance to expose the plight of our lost U.S. servicemen. This book is very highly recommended to everyone who would like an untainted and factual look into the heartbreaking saga of missing U.S. soldiers.

Absolutely, this is the most riveting and explosive book I have ever read. I served 2 tours of combat duty in the Korean WAR; futhermore, had I been privy to this read, you could never have gotten me back to Korea- never -. The Big Lie, spawned out of the Beltway since 1945 to the present, is inconcievable, that the DoD, State Dept, Pentagon and Joint Chiefs of Staff [all], deny the existense of American GI"s languishing in Siberia, Red China, North Korea and North Vietnam . Imagine, former POW"s readily admit, they had seen American POW"s herded off to the Soviet Union and to Red China. Whose hearts go out to our MIA/POW families whom have been grossly and deliberately LIED to by government officials ?? Whereas, our Presidents [all] since 1945, turned their backs on all captured American POW"s. I pray, from this hurt, that one American staggers out of the Soviet Union to corroborate all, in this vale of tears- maybe, just maybe - the apathetic American populace will wake up to being had by a devious lot in our nation"s capital, as they go about THEIR business as usual. If this read doesn"t make your blood boil, then you aren"t alive; however, the assertions, send an ambigious message to any teenager who may be thinking about enlisting: "I wonder, will my President and countrymen come to my rescue if I am captured by the enemy"?? It is your call youngsters. Sayonara.

What happens when one imposes meat-eating on the other? What happens when the one doing the imposing happens to be your own father? And what happens when such carno-terrorism--to borrow from Jacques Derrida--becomes allegorical, representative of an inability to speak? In "Letter to His Father," Franz Kafka (a self-championing vegetarain harboring something akin to a body dismorphic disorder) coughs up a catalog of paternally-driven injustices and imagines a gastronomic utopia inimical to Daddy's sadistic table regime. Often overlooked, "The Letter to His Father" belongs right up there with Kafka's other canonized marvels. Go ahead and chew on it for a while.

A Letter to my Father by Franz Kafka is a look into the mind of one of the most talented (but also unhappy) writers of the 20th century. It's a very personal account of the relationship between Kafka & his father, his strong, controling, tough father who was the main figure who influenced Kafka's life & way of thinking. Franz Kafka talks with great pain in this 'letter' about his childhood years & how his father controlled everyone in the household, how the writer's own personality was shaped & molded by this one relationship. After reading this letter, the reader is closer to understanding the person that wrote "Metamorphosis" & "The Judgment".

I was looking for a new novel at the bookstore and the cover of The Soulforge caught my eye. I never before read any Dragon Lance books and I was very impressed when I finally laid it down, it kept me captivated from cover to cover. I want to know if I was to start The Legends Series would the stories be hindered by my reading The Soulforge. Also is there going to be a volume two to the Soulforge? If so, when is it going to be released and what is the Title? Can somebody give me some info on this. It would be greatly appreciated.

The way they set these tapes up makes it very simple to learn basic Spanish. If you are looking for a bit more than basic spanish speaking skills, this tape can provide it, no problem! You won't be a fluent spanish speaker, but realize it's only 8 hours of instruction. You will be suprised with all you get from it, at least I was. (on the side I read children books in spanish for extra pratice, this helps if you are trying to learn fluent spanish) Good luck!

I learned to speak and understand basic Spanish with this course and I never had to guess at meanings (they were all provided). The voices were excellent and the overall level of proficiecy that I was able to achieve in just three weeks astounds me!

SRT Diver is the best book on special response team diving that is available -- and I have read them all. This book is a must for any professional diver and recommended for all divers and swat operators. Lonsdale has done a great job on this one.

As a SCUBA diver and film industry stunt coordinator I found this book to be one of the best I have ever come across. Mark Lonsdale really knows his stuff. This was the best $20 that I have ever spend on informative reading. Thanks Mark.

My 6 1/2 year old LOVES to read this book! The riddles are funny and easy to understand. Each page has about 10 words to read so it's not too challenging but not too easy either(my son becomes frustrated with too many words per page). He also loves to tell these riddles(jokes)to family and friends. Pictures are silly looking not scary at all. Highhly recommended.

My 4 and 6 year olds love this book. It's great easy reading for them and they love the punchlines! Even Grandpa laughed!

This book provides a wealth of technique information & helped me to progress from being a very average swimmer, having not set foot in a pool for ten years, to having the confidence to compete in a national carnival within just six months. This book inspires confidence and provides simple to follow techniques that really do work and will give you a stylish stroke and kick for life. I couldn't recommend this book more strongly, both to swimmers who are just starting out, as well as to older swimmers who are building up courage to reenter the swimming circuit.

As a swimmer i know it is hard to find the right book to improve your stroke. This book did just that for me. This book has the right technics that exceptionaly improved my stroke. If you are looking to improve your stroke this is the book to read. There are many other books on the market that are also very good but, this book tops the charts. I recomend this book to swimmers of all ages thought it might be harder for younger children under 10 to comprehend with. And in conclusion i will say this book is the way to go when improving technics and getting out the quirks in your strokes.
