1.Goshawk SquadronGoshawk Squadron

Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
_Goshawk Squadron_ tells the story of a WWI squadron of pilots in the winter and spring of 1918. Robinson is ruthless in the treatment of his characters, tragic death following tragic death as both replacements and old hands fall from the sky as part of the randomness and unpredictability of war.... more info

2.[no image]A Piece of Cake
from Knopf

Customer Review:
I looked for this book after catching the end of the miniseries on TV. I guess the author broke a lot of "rules" about characters and probably other things, too, but I loved it. You might be introduced to a character, learn all about him, and find him dead two pages later. This gave me a sense for... more info

4.A Course in the Theory of Groups (Graduate Texts in Mathematics)A Course in the Theory of Groups (Graduate Texts in Mathematics)
from Springer
Price: $68.55

Customer Review:
This book is, I suppose, the most authoritative and comprehensive text on group theory. Text is quite succinct and self-contained, proofs are elegant and rigorous. Only few sections of the first chapter cover undergraduate group theory. Therefore I do not recommend it for the one that would prefer... more info

5.An Introduction to Abstract Algebra (De Gruyter Textbook)An Introduction to Abstract Algebra (De Gruyter Textbook)
from Walter de Gruyter
Price: $46.00

Customer Review:
The first thing to not about this book is that it is dense. In my abstract algebra course we covered chapters 3-5 in an entire semester. However, it contained every proof we needed in class, and although it reads slowly, it was usually crystal-clear. Especially good is its treatment of group... more info

6.[no image]A Good Clean Fight
from Harpercollins

Customer Review:
Derek Robinson's novel, A Good Clean Fight, follows the remaining characters from his earlier Piece of Cake to the North African Desert in May 1942. As in previous Robinson novels, much of the focus is upon the fictional "Hornet Squadron," now led by "Fanny" Barton and equipped with P-40... more info

8.Rugby: A Player s Guide to the LawsRugby: A Player's Guide to the Laws
from HarperCollins UK
Price: $11.05

Customer Review:
I really enjoyed this book. Although only current through 1995, many of the laws are still applicable. What the book does best, is explain WHY the law exists and explain them in the context of the game in very simple terms. Diagrams illustrate certain points very well. Understanding why the law is... more info

10.Kentucky Blues (Cassell Military Paperbacks)Kentucky Blues (Cassell Military Paperbacks)
from Cassell

Customer Review:
This book just seems to ramble along like a wagon with one square wheel. The character development is incongruous and unconvincing and the book is full of inconsistencies. A waste of time.
