from Naval Institute Press
Price: $16.34

Customer Review:
1998's "Storming St. Nazaire" is James Dorrian's enthralling account of a British Commando raid in the dark days of World War II against a German-occupied port in France. The raid was a formative step in the building of a special operations capability for the Allies, and a painful lesson in combined... more info

2.North Korean Special Forces (Naval Institute Special Warfare Series)North Korean Special Forces (Naval Institute Special Warfare Series)
from Naval Institute Press
Price: $125.00

Customer Review:
This is a very good overview of the North Korean special forces, and is an essential building block for anyone interested in the subject. Drawn mostly from Foreign Broadcast Infornation Service translated documents, it does suffer from a minor, but disturbing, error. My 1998 edition refers to Kim... more info

3.Secret Army, Secret War: Washington s Tragic Spy Operation in North Vietnam (Naval Institute Special Warfare Series)Secret Army, Secret War: Washington's Tragic Spy Operation in North Vietnam (Naval Institute Special Warfare Series)
from US Naval Institute Press
Price: $37.25

Customer Review:
Before this one, many other books provide the one-sided view from Washington by war historians, scholars and analysts (who did not know off-hand the combat and strategic position at the time nor the moral, spirit and willingness to fight by the young and heroic Special Branch Commandos). These books... more info

from US Naval Institute Press
Price: $10.30

Customer Review:
Do not waste your money, and more importantly, your TIME in reading this dottering, rambling, hazy memoir of someone who sorta, kinda, maybe was there.
The book had the potential to shed some light on the origins of the British Special Boat Squardors in WWII. It appears the author was there for... more info

from Naval Institute Press
Price: $25.75

Customer Review:
This book, along with its companion in the series, "Raiders on the China Coast" gives a lot of information about the history of the U.S. Army Special Forces in the Far East during the 1950's. Much of why we ended up so heavily involved in Vietnam can be better understand with the light of this... more info

from US Naval Institute Press
Price: $24.99

Customer Review:
In my experience it is relatively rare to run across a true story told with the wrenching impact of the best fiction, but this is one such book.
Scott artfully weaves together the people, the landscape, and an amorphous third element: the changes occurring in Vietnam that combine the history of... more info

from US Naval Institute Press
Price: $108.20

Customer Review:
I had high hopes for this book. It touched on a little-known aspect of not only the Korean War but the complicated role of China in US foreign policy as well. It was also an important opportunity to demonstrate the importance of covert ops in war by someone who was there.

Unfortunately, "Raiders"... more info

8.[no image]Codename Mule: Fighting the Secret War in Laos for the CIA (Naval Institute Special Warfare Series)
from Naval Institute Press
Price: $19.95

Customer Review:
The title of this book is misleading. For over 200 pages I got to read all about his family, his holidays, his pets, inside jokes, and other uneventful detail. Once in a while for a couple of pages he would slip in something about how he armed pre-teen children to fight in the jungles. If his book... more info

Sp5/SFC Daniel Phillips (Danny) was a year behind me at Milton Hershey School. We were on the wrestling team together. Later, we were at Millersville State College where he became a college drop out.

from US Naval Institute Press
Price: $7.71

Customer Review:
If you are a fan of the history of the period, you will like this book. It grinds on and on with dry dull facts. Better than 3/4 of the book is devoted to general cold war history. Only in the last 2-3 chapters is the drama of the mission told
