4 | A good, solid story of war | Somehow the dialogue did not ring very accurate, knowing the way of soldiers, but what started with some hesitations, as it expanded, became a very entertaining book. The author, it is obvious, knows all the ins and outs of the particular era, and descriptions of the places where the story takes place ring all true.<br... | [] | 1452879818 | 1452879818 | AHBDCC6PPJ6TDXHQOYIHKDNS3VHQ | 1,362,008,424,000 | 1 | true |
4 | Gripping and on the scene | The Tsunami tragedy, told by the perspective of three different people. The writer does a very decent job introducing these individuals, and then describes the moments when the waves came to shore. Many stories in one book. No doubt about it: Tsunamis are terrible acts of nature, and one best be properly elevated to av... | [] | 1594863784 | 1594863784 | AHBDCC6PPJ6TDXHQOYIHKDNS3VHQ | 1,361,845,347,000 | 1 | true |
4 | For those who view bullfighters with respect | This book is about bullfighters, even though it is broken down in plazas. Plazas are the rings where the "corridas" take place. Since the dawning of bullfighting, these plazas have been the sites of countless corridas through out the years. Some mediocre, some performed by great bullfighters, over the years the history... | [] | B000AZ7HA6 | B000AZ7HA6 | AHBDCC6PPJ6TDXHQOYIHKDNS3VHQ | 1,361,844,051,000 | 1 | true |
5 | A-Z, Concise and Thorough | Over the years I have been wanting, but have never done it, to visit New York City. Besides the many cultural and sightseeing opportunities, the main reason (why beat around the bush) is to experience the fantastic culinary world that await those that arrive to their shore. New York boasts to be the first city in all t... | [] | 0307929299 | 0307929299 | AHBDCC6PPJ6TDXHQOYIHKDNS3VHQ | 1,353,452,966,000 | 1 | false |
5 | 4.5 Stars! | Hard to believe that not too long ago the world was at war with Germany. The nazis were a brutal group and the leaders took it upon them to basically get rid of the jewish population.

3 | 3.5 Stars! | There is such thing as too much detail and this book excels at it. The diary goes on day after day, as the struggles due to the war escalate. For some reason this individual did not suffer the same faith as the most tragic cases of those who were immediately deported and executed by the nazi regime.

3 | Strictly for the Aviator minded! | Once I read the book, or most of it, I realized I was not going to get involved in it.

4 | 3.5 Stars! | Sometimes you have to be a military person to understand the humor in this novel.

3 | 3.5 Stars! | Weird book in that a relationship forms under these circumstances and not one of the parents really puts a stop to it.

3 | 2nd Person Galore? | You open the book and there it is there. The narrator engages the whole narrative and uses the second person to tell the tale.

3 | Can I have another one? | These crime books are a little on the addicting side.

This particular book had the elements and the story unfolds well enough, it was not a bad book.

5 | Powerful and Sad! | Powerful because the killer is like a snake that extends its reach to several parts of the world. For crime books occupies the upper levels of crime writing.

3 | Too full of himself, little excitement! | I wanted to like Green Hills of Africa by Ernest Hemingway but I found it more boring than exciting.

3 | 3.5, actually... | This is the kind of book of the same tradition and theme as the Godfather (one of the all times classic by Mario Puzo), and even though it strives to tell a neighborhood story of a place called Narrows Gate, in the end it is not as great of an epic, as the mentioned Godfather. The narrator almost sounds like a Goombha,... | [] | 1612181376 | 1612181376 | AHBDCC6PPJ6TDXHQOYIHKDNS3VHQ | 1,321,338,031,000 | 3 | false |
4 | 4.5 Stars! | Powerful account of a maritime race, perfect storm meets the yacht club, for a chance to arrive first on what turned out to be the most grueling of races.

4 | To the Hunter at Heart! | Something about hunting and hunters, and why not?, the hunted that always got my curiosity.

2 | No Heads or Tails | This must be a different type of a book. Even though the author has a lot to say the way she goes about it makes it very hard to follow, much less enjoy.

3 | Sure, Buddy! | This reads like a madman is writing it. A big bad ass that had links with the cosa nostra (notice I no longer use Capitals on the name, it has lost its shine, that's for sure) and terrorized any one one on his path if he deemed necessary, which he most always did.

3 | Average and Outdated | A mess of information, or is it that Oregon is that complicated demographically? I did not find it easy reading this handbook, and its assistance to my needs was minimal.

4 | Lost In America! | Solid 4 Stars. Later in the book I felt like it started lagging a little bit, more and more of the same stuff, therefore the 4 Stars rating.

3 | 3.5 | More like a journal than anything else, the book does tell of the early years of the Rolling Stones.

5 | Fine work! | I seldom encounter a book of this kind with this much quality. Over the years I must have read every book dealing with organized crime.

1 | Sorry but no! | Starts well enough but before long it goes terribly wrong. I find it hard to believe the many positive endorsements regarding this book.

5 | Deservedly so! | Having read many countless non fiction books and in particular the crime varieties I have to say that many many authors seem to publish books of this nature.
