from Vintage
Price: $10.17
Customer Review:
In reviewing Michael Ondaatje's recent novel DIVISADERO, I remarked that his narrative technique involved writing short fragments, loosely connected in theme but jumping around in subject and time, and leaving it to the reader to connect them. Such an appeal to the imagination is rare and... more info

| | 5. |  | Peace
from Knopf
Price: $13.57
Customer Review:
Bausch's book is very well-written, The prose is taut and there's none of the grasping at profundity that ruins much of contemporary American writing.

This author presents an excellant overview of a selective portion of the action in WWII (Africa and Sicily). At the same time he expresses the thoughts of the common soldier as well commanders of both the axis and allies. Shaara is among the best historical adventure writers in the world today.

from Da Capo Press
Price: $16.32
Customer Review:
This is a fantastic book. The number of pages at first daunted me, but (after the first few which are kind of so-so), the book just takes off! He not only talks about the campaigns that he fought in, but he also breaks down what he learned and what should and should not have been in each one. What... more info
