This is one fantastic book. The articles in here are enough to scare anyone who suspects that there is more going on in our world than we dare think about. Some of the best writers around have contributed their talents in this book...Brad Steiger, Kenn Thomas, Branton, Sean Casteel, Peter Robbins, and Timothy Green Beckley to name just a few.

Testosterone Driven Action!
Helpful Votes: 1 out of 1 total.
Review Date: 2008-05-15
I have been a fan of Carroll "Poke" Runyon since his authoritative publishing of treatises on Solomonic Goetia Evocation Operations.

In his book, "Commando X," Runyon details the exploits of U.S. Army Captain Rufus Bruckman during a mission of espionage in the Carribean.

It is a concise text, yet filled with references to all the things we love: Cthulhu & the Necronomicon, The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, Dumas' The Count of Monte Cristo, "the gentlemen of the old school," fencing, sexy women with guns, medieval metaphysics, para-military operations, sharks, big macho men, modern pirates, explosives, Ft. Bragg, NC, special operations, SCUBA, intrigue, airborne operations, VooDoo, cigars, soldiers, rappelling, French and Spanish Language bites, islands & insurgents, ships, submarines, thugs, brandy, & action, action, action!

Ahhh, it was wonderful. After reading this book the experience made me want to pull out my vintage 1970's G.I. Joe Adventure Team action figure sets along with my wife's Barbie dolls and reenact the whole plot again!

At only 173 pages you can gobble it up on a rainy Saturday and harken back to a time when men were men and women loved 'em that way. If this is "your cup of tea" then you will not be disappointed.

By the way, I purchased a copy from the first printing of September 1967. The excerpt page inside of the front book cover was inscribed by "Nolan Babcock, C-4." Nolan, if you ever want your book back just let me know.

This book is an amazing book with so much information that will blow you away. The book took many years to write....
when you read it you will understand why. There were a few slow parts in this book, but overall a five star. Reading
second world war books is somewhat like taking a large Jig Saw puzzle and putting it together piece by piece. After
reading over 30 W.W.II books, Body Guards of Lies put a big part of the puzzle together for me. It's unbias not like
some of the books I have read from USA authors. it's a must read ...you will not be disappointed.

Convention

One of my favorites
Helpful Votes: 2 out of 2 total.
Review Date: 2001-09-07
This is one of my favorite political books of all time. Basically, on the eve of the Democratic National Convention, fifty or so delegates agreed to keep in-depth journals that would detail the day-to-day events at New York's Madison Square Garden. Reeves then used these journals to write this informative, at times very humorous and even poignant, book about the plots and sub-plots that accompanied the 1976 nomination of Jimmy Carter.

The book details everything from the Carter Campaign's bizarrely paranoid attempt to bug the Convention Hall to the strongarm tactics used by Chairman Robert Struass to control the convention to 18 year-old delegate Clare Smith's valient attempts to track down Hunter S. Thompson. As well, we read about future Ohio Governor Richard Celeste's endless attempts to promote his own future viability as a presidential candidate and George Wallace's agony at fading into the background. Perhaps the most amusing sections for me were the ones dealing with joyful convention crashed Joe Kaselask and is attempts to sneak his way onto national television.


At times while reading this book, I had to remind myself that the events detailed within took place a quarter of a century ago. Many of the most fascinating characters (like Hubert Humphrey, Pat Brown, Mo Udall, and Wallace)are no long with us, while other leading characters (Celeste, Fritz Efaw) have sunk into relative obscurity. I find myself wondering what happened to some of the non-politicians in the book. Has Clare Smith ever attended another Democratic Convention? Did Joe Kaselask go onto crash the 1980 Convention?


Another added pleasure came from occasionally running across minor characters who would later go on to achieve a prominence apart from their actions at the '76 Convention. A good example of this would be wheelchair-bound, anti-war activist Ron Kovic, later to become better known as Tom Cruise but here presented as somewhat of a blowhard. Even a pre-anchorman Tom Brokaw shows up, long enough to get into a brawl while yelling at his antagonist, "I won't forget you, creep!"


Appropriately enough, the only character who seems to have been exactly the same in '76 as he is now would have to be then-Governor, now-Mayor Jerry Brown. Brown, with his enigmatic presence and refusal to take anything at the convetion too seriously, actually emerges as one of the few pure characters in the book. In fact, Brown turns out to be more Carter-like than Jimmy Carter himself.


In the end, imagine Robert Altman directing a political convention and that's what you have with Richard Reeves' wonderful book. Its non-fiction that reads like a brilliantly satirical novel. Last time I looked, there were 27 used copies of this book available so take a chance and order one. You won't be sorry.

Fourteen leading figures give some glimpse into the Rebbe
Helpful Votes: 1 out of 1 total.
Review Date: 2003-12-17
Rabbi Chaim Dalfin,a devoted chassid of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, tirelessly labors to disseminate Judaism and Chassidus to many. (That the man puts out two to three books a year testifies to this fact.)In this work, Rabbi Dalfin travels the world, interviewing fourteen well known figures with great contributions. From a magnetohyrodynamics scientist to a Washington attorney to a Holocaust survivor to a Chassidic rabbi/psychiatrist to a Reform rabbi to a renowned author and more, the very diversity of the interviewees firmly attest to the Rebbe's reach and influence. The interviews are both fascinating and revealing. Thank you to Rabbi Dalfin!

I am a Middle School teacher in the Virginia Beach School system. I bought the training CDs in order to train myself so that I can teach other Business and Instructional Technology teachers how to use this powerful program. These vides clips have got to be the fastest and most efficient way to learn the PSP X tools and user interface. Thanks for taping them at just the right speed. I have found some other training tapes to be painfully slow.
