Must read.
I first read this book about 30 years ago and have read it several times since. A wonderful affirmation of honor and courage that appears in ordinary people. Every high school student should be encouraged to read it.

DANISH PRIDE IN SAVING LIVES IN WWII
This book had a great impact on my life. Having met one of the members of the Dansih undersground after reading this book, and hearing his account, I was impressed by the ring of truth from the author. As a Danish-American, I was truly inspired by the heroism. I wanted to buy a copy for my Jewish-American friend, but was dismayed by the fact it is out of print. This book had a major impact on my general philosophy of life and how to behave in a moral manner. It shows regular people can be heroes. It should be recommended reading for high school kids as an uplifting example of positive morale acts. It is, for adults, an affirmation, in historical perspective, of decency and respect for other human beings. Rated in my top 10 of all books I've read.

Basis of lectures to school children on escape from Denmark
I buy this book for my good friend who escaped from Denmark during the War. He is Jewish and gives lectures to small school children and groups on the flee of Jewish Danish citizens from Germans. He loves this book.

Indians being opressessed.
This book is about Joe Murdock, an Indian on the San Pedro Reservation. He has just returned from Vietnam and is a Sergeant. He does not like the way the reservation is run. He believes they are oppressed, the owner of the single store on the Reservation, Mr. Linton overcharges them, and the Council doesn't care. He tries to set up a business with a store in a nearby town. Along the way, he is thrown in jail, tries to kill the Agent, the white man in charge of the reservation, but is stopped, begins to hate the Indian culture, helps train actors for a movie about Indians, and looks to the spirit of Cochise, a great leader, for help. Read the Spirit of Cochise by Elliot Arnold to find out if he is successful. This was an okay book. It had a strong, albeit sometimes convoluted plot, believable characters, and some good action. The plot had many surprising twists and turns. The ending may surprise you. However sometimes it is hard to figure out some things in the plot, and it gets kind of boring.

My Review
Overall, this was a pretty good book. I liked this book a lot, but it got confusing at some times. I really never knew what was going on. I have never read a book like this one. IT had many plot twists and was unpredictable. I was not to long and it was not to short. As the book went on, escpecially in the middle and in the end, it is interesting and makes you want to keep reading. The end was unpredictable and very good. it is for anyone who would want a book to read.
