5.0 out of 5 stars
A Compelling and Provocative Page Turner,
By Shelby Taylor (Cailifornia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rolling Thunder: The Strategic Bombing Campaign, North Vietnam 1965-1968 (Paperback)
Again, this writer turns the written page into an adventure for the reader, filled with action, treachery, and suspense. Yet still the story reads in a very human and literary voice, with great description. The plot is complex, and the characters are dynamic. I eagerly anticipate the arrival of his new books 'White Lie' and 'Saigon Express' (currently only available in Britain) to the U.S.
