1.		We Die Alone: A World War Two Epic of Escape and Endurance from Canongate Books Ltd Customer Review: There are so many 5-star reviews that I thought I'd add a little detail so potential readers can know more about this before diving in like I did. The story starts out as a plan for espionage againsts Nazis. This part is brief. The main guy, Jan, ends up almost dead and staggering into a home... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		Swanson's Family Practice Review: A Problem-Oriented Approach, Fifth Edition from Mosby Price: $80.10 Customer Review: This book helped me a lot to study for step 3. This is a must for IMGs who are trying to get this done before coming to the states.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		1066: The Year of the Conquest from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $11.20 Customer Review: David Howarth wrote this popular history to describe the life in 1066 England from contemporary sources (Norman, English, and Scandinavian). Any historian has to decide between contradictory stories (p.8). The people of long ago lived simple lives with less knowledge, yet their thoughts and emotions... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.	[no image]	Walden, and Other Writings (Modern Library college editions) from Random House USA Inc Customer Review: Walden, of course, is a timeless classic. I've read it in its entirety several times, and I keep this book at my bedside so I can flip to my favorite chapters, Solitude, The Ponds, Winter Animals, Spring, etc., any time I wish. Only Thoreau can end a book with the sentence "The Sun is but a morning... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		The Sledge Patrol: A WWII Epic of Escape, Survival, and Victory from The Lyons Press Price: $11.53 Customer Review: The story itself is interesting and exciting, and I enjoyed the accompanying insights into life and travel in the arctic. The author narrates well, but almost manages to spoil it with an intolerably smug, condescending attitude towards the "eskimos", which he probably mistakes for a kind of colonial... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.	[no image]	SHETLAND BUS from CHIVERS LARGE PRINT (CHIVERS, WINDSOR, PARAGON C Customer Review: June 10, 1940 was a good day for Hitler -- his conquest of Norway was complete. Germany was now able to safely import vital Swedish iron ore from the Norwegian port of Narvik, effectively bypassing the British blockade. For Young Norwegian fishermen like August Naeroy, Mindur Berge, and Ole Grotle,... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers from Princeton University Press Price: $79.90 Customer Review: I am as big a fan of Thoreau as there is (I've given 5 stars to 3 of his other books), but I am sorry, this one is just a bit too wordy. Thoreau rambles a lot in this book, there are places where a few paragraphs of descriptions of his trip are followed by pages of wandering thoughts. Maybe I am not... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Journal, Volume 1 from Princeton University Press Price: $99.50 Customer Review: "Oct. 22nd, 1837. 'What are you doing now?' he asked, 'Do you keep a journal?'-- So I make my first entry today." Thus begins Thoreau's Journal, made up of more then two million words and covering about twenty-five years of his life. No other work of Thoreau's better exhibits his discipline as a... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		Trafalgar: The Nelson Touch (Great Battles) from Phoenix Price: $12.95 Customer Review: So many books about famous battles are written about the strategies used. They are very high level, like "this general moved his armies here and this general moved his armies there". David Howarth tells this story from the perspective of the men who actually fought the battles, which makes the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		We Die Alone from Ace	Click here for more information


11.		British Sea Power: How Britain Became Sovereign of the Seas from Basic Books Price: $15.00 Customer Review: This book is an excellent summary of English sea power. Great life stories of many of the key Naval Officers and Ship captains.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		The Voyage of the Armada (Windrush Press Book) from Cassell military Customer Review: I picked up this book almost at random to write a book review for my Tudor-Stuart English class. The book is written in a narrative format that really helps you follow the story - for an avid fantasy book reader, it came across almost as a real book and not just a dry history text. The book has a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

15.		Waterloo: A Near Run Thing (Great Battles) from Phoenix Press Price: $12.95 Customer Review: "Waterloo: A Near Run Thing" by David Howarth. Phoenix Paperback, London, Orion Books Ltd, 1968 and paperback in 2003. In a large chain bookstore, I noticed this paperback in the "History" section near the World War II offerings; the book made me recall my European History professor who... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

17.		Singular Images from Aperture Price: $14.96 Customer Review: Great book with interesting approches on the images. I'm glad to have it.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


18.		Dawn of D-Day: These Men Were There, 6 June 1944 (Greenhill Military Paperback) from Greenhill Books Price: $22.95 Customer Review: This book does not deal so much with military tactics and the genius involved in planning and executing Operation Overlord, but rather it gives us a close to the ground perspective of what it was like to suffer the discomfort, pain and fear of June 6, 1944. The many different experiences of these... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


19.	[no image]	The Dreadnoughts (Seafarers) from Time Life UK Customer Review: The lessons of the Battle of Tsushima during the war between Russia and Japan in 1905, where long-range fire decided the outcome, were not lost on the British Admiralty. The result was the creation of the H.M.S. "Dreadnought," a radical design that heralded the start of an epic naval arms race of... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


20.		Nelson: The Immortal Memory from Conway Maritime Press Ltd Customer Review: 'Written by two of the UK's finest naval historians' (from the back cover), the authors managed to create, at least in this readers mind, an almost palpable taste of cordite in the back of the throat and a recoil from the bloodstained decks of England's pride and joy. Howarth excels in explaining... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
