5-0 out of 5 stars Simple Thoughts
When I first saw this book, I thought I was in for a great war story. This book is more than that. Zenatti tells her fantastic story about how she managed to leave her friends and family, loose her boyfriend, and still work so hard in the Army that she earns to be in the Secret Service. Usually when you read biographies, you think of endless boring facts, but when you read this, it's like you are right there with Valerie. You feel what she does, and you just get right into the story. I recomend this to, well, everyone.If you do plan to get this book, I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did.

4-0 out of 5 stars Young Adult Label Misleading; A Worthy Read
When I saw the "JUV" label on the spine of Valerie Zenatti's memoir I must confess I was quite a bit apprehensive about delving further into the book than its front and back covers.However, I must urge you not to make such a mistake; this book merits a read, not just a look.
3-0 out of 5 stars Life inIsrael, Army Life, Teen / Young Adult Angst
I was not swept away in this book, but I do feel it offers a glimpse of life in Israel and what it's like being in the army.Valerie Zenatti moved to Israel with her family when she was 13, and after completing high school (or taking the Bac) she enlists in the army.The writing tone has a teen ridden angst to it that I just couldn't overcome at times, and frankly, found the book a bit dull as a result.While she documents her army life, visits home and an old boyfriend shen she can, she realizes that she is changing away from her old friends and her old life as well.So, there is nothing new in that message.Even so, I think it was a valuable look at life in Israel from a young adult point of view.Maybe more books that question the whole Israeli precept for being a state and having their war with Palestine (whose land got robbed and stolen in order to make Israel) will contribute to some kind of peace and understanding in that part of the world. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars The dramatic, first-person narrative story of Dale Aldrich
The Belly Gunner is the dramatic, first-person narrative story of Dale Aldrich, an American GI who served in World War II, and who told of his life to author Carol Edgemon Hipperson. Eyewitness experiences, gripping and deadly battles, black-and-white photographs and an era that changed the world forever are all presented in vivid detail, in this straightforward account especially suitable for readers age 12 through 17, and is highly recommended for school and community library collections.

5-0 out of 5 stars Very Fine Work
More detailed works exist on the Roman military, of course. But these are scholarly and are difficult for students and gneral readers with no background in Roman history. Don Nardo has done a tremendous job here of distilling the main points of the subject in a compact volume for beginners. His explanations of Roman battle tactics are extremely well informed and easy to understand, and several useful diagrams of battle formations and specific battles help make this treatment one of the best existing ones, despite its brevity. As a Roman buff, I recommend it highly.

5-0 out of 5 stars Full of Useful Information
For anyone looking to find out more about ancient warfare, but particularly about the ancient Roman army, this book is a really good place to start.It tells about the history of the Roman army, and how young Roman men enlisted, and their lives in the army camps, and their weapons, and how they lined up and fought on the battlefield, and even how the Roman army went downhill and eventually fell apart after too many barabarians joined the ranks.Also in the book are some nice diagrams of important battles and also one of a typical army camp.Best of all, the author tells the names of all the important books aver written on the subject! (in a list in the back) The whole thing was very well done. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars good presentation for a young audience
It is interesting to see a book on the Manhattan Project, directed specifically at primary school readers. Gonzales has artfully taken many source materials, and summarised these in a very readable and understandable format. The technical presentation is accurate, and conveys enough of the essence of the design problems that students should appreciate the tremendous difficulties involved in the Project. Certainly, the book also has the advantage of very visual illustrations, shall we say?

4-0 out of 5 stars A good introduction for children
This book is suitable for young children who may be interested in tanks as a result of having seen them in movies or the news, but who have no other knowledge of the subject. It provides a brief summary of the history of tanks, what makes them useful in military operations, and how they have been developed and used over the past century. The illustrations are quite good. The language is suitably simple for children, but avoids stooping to baby-talk. Terms a youngster would probably find unfamiliar are in bold type, with a definition at the bottom the page on which they first appear. As this is a child's introduction to tanks, there is virtually no military theory (think "The Golden Book of Tanks," as opposed to something by Rommel, Guderian, Liddell-Hart, or Fuller). A reasonably literate reader of 13 or older would probably be better off with a work on tanks written for adults, but I recommend this for younger children with an interest in the subject. ...
