I have been a student of military history for as long as I can recall. I have never before found a more complete and more perfectly illustrated source for military service decorations and medals. The awarding criterion, histories, proper wear, order of prominence... all these details are covered, from the highest honor to the most basic of awards.

The color templates in the book are not to be missed, and I have to agree with the author, LTC Aldebol... If you can own only one Air Force book, this is the one to own!

Anthony Cronin delivers straight-to-the-point honesty--no room for neutrality here! such a pleasure to read something so opinionated and SAUCY! It's sure to put a smile on anyone's face--even if you know nothing about the 'art world.' Thumbs up for a man with a voice and a few funny theories!

Admiral Jean-Francois Darlan, heir-apparent to Marshal Petain, is revealed in this book to have been a key player in a pivotal episode in World War II. Behind the mystery of Admiral Darlan's presence in Algiers in November 1942 was a conflict between Franklin D. Roosevelt and Winston Churchill on which hung the fate of France.

Darlan in fact was involved in a plan to keep Petain's Vichy government in power as a counter to the growing streangth of Communism. When the terms of the plan was revealed, they shocked all those in Britain, France, and the United States who were backing Charles de Gaulle. On December 24, 1942, the Gaullists, supported by the British Secret Service and the American OSS, and probably with the knowledge of Churchill himself, stood back while a certain "patriot" entered Darlan's office and shot him dead. Drawing on interviews and new-found sources, the author tells the full ugly story of the unknown turning point in the secret battle over who would lead France.

A friend of mine bought me this book, knowing I'm interested inthe field, also knowing that I know nothing about Dental Assisting.It was easy enough for a beginner to learn the basics through the advanced. EXCELLENT.

this is the grandfather of illustrated dermatology atlas'. This book will be a valued member of your diagnostic tools --good for board review also. Full of color illustrations -- a must for any medical practitioner -- a bit expensive but worth every penny. an accompanying Slide kit is also available.

Never in my wildest dreams have I experienced such pleasure - and that includes practises in bed! I as a dctor myself have found this book invaluable in my further studies of Gynecologic Oncology. Since I was a kid, I've always wanted to read a book of such quality - Dickens and Shakespeare are terrible in comparison! Also, I have seen the brilliant Anthony Silverstone and find him extremely attractive - could you please send me a signed autograph of him. Thankyou

I consider this is one of the best Atlas I have ever known. As a graduate student of maxcillofacial surgery, I recommend this text to all the Phisycian around the world. Thanks.

A fascinating account of the biology of the world's auks (or alcids). Full of valuable nuggets of information, much coming from years of field research by the authors. The text is rich in useful maps, line drawings and tables of facts and figures. The color plates by Ian Lewington are up to his usual very high standard and show all living species in the majority of plumage states. I found the discussion of the evolution and radiation of both extant and extinct species particularly interesting. The high price and limited treatment of field identification may put off many birdwatchers, however those who read the book will be surprised at how interesting the auks really are.

This is the guide book of insect on Australia

I was pleased to see a book on this subject as there has been so little written about it. I am writing a paper on the legal relationships in the travel industry and I would like to contact the author. My opinion is that travel agents do not fall within the framework of agency law in the true sense. Any comments would be appreciated.. Thanks
