Tell Senate Democrats that they went too far when they shut down the government over an amnesty program.

Cold War, Dien Bien Phu, The First Indochina War, 1946-1954

The publisher is achieving great success with this fascinating Cold War series and this volume covers the critical period of the Cuban Missile Crisis. The Soviets greatly underestimated the resolve of the US and its allies, consequently suffering a humiliating if bloodless defeat – Very Highly Recommended.
Combat Over the Trenches, Oswald Watt, Aviation Pioneer
Oswald Watts was a true pioneer of aviation and attracted much coverage during his life and after. Not all of this coverage was accurate and a number of myths and misconceptions have appeared. The author has done a very good job of objectively recounting the life and career of Oswald Watts and his text is supported by many well-chosen images through the body of the book – Most Highly Recommended.
Executive Protection, The Next Level
Considering the size of the market internationally, there are remarkably few books on the subject of close protection and related subjects.

It will also be a fascinating read for a much wider readership, covering a very important personal safety subject – Highly Recommended.
