Licensed to Kill: Hired Guns in the War on Terror
Robert Young Pelton

Three Rivers Press, 2007

balanced coverage without political biases
This was a fantastic book. I'm having a hard time finding unbiased literature about the modern trend of PMCs (mercenary companies). Books written by conservatives paint PMCs (especially American ones) as purely patriotic and heroic organizations. They often overlooking ...
  
  











  



  
The Dark Side: The Inside Story of How The War on Terror Turned into a War on American Ideals
Jane Mayer

Doubleday, 2008

Well organized and researched.
One reviewer said that there is no point reading another book about the things the Bush administration has done since 9-11. Why? Is it because they cling to the hope that it is ALL lies, or do they think that if it is buried in the dung heep of history that no one will ...

The Terror: A Novel
Dan Simmons

Back Bay Books, 2007

Master and Commander meets the Yeti!
This is not like Simmons' other books, horror and fantasy. Rather, this is historical fiction with a sinister twist. Though a long story, there are so many themes, subplots, that you keep turning the pages, reminiscent of a Mitchener novel. Cozier, the alcoholic ...
  
  











  



  
The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason
Sam Harris

Everyone should read this book!!
I don't normally write book reviews, even for books I enjoy. However, after having read "The End of Faith", as well as many of the reviews of it, I just HAD to recommend it. Apart from being an excellent writer, Mr. Harris' logic is so sharp and compelling, so utterly ...

Tactics of the Crescent Moon: Militant Muslim Combat Methods
H. John Poole

Posterity Press, 2004

A must read for those who leave the wire
During seven months in Falluja in 2005 I spent approximately 150 days in the city. The history alone in this book showed us just how much we may have been underestimating our enemies, and that if they followed their classical influences they could have done much more ...
