Great Battles of the Civil War • A big book by Civil War Times Illustrated magazine. I was lucky this wasn’t priced very high. I’m not sure who decided such a dark color for the text was a great idea for this cover. That happens far more than it should.
Korean War Heroes • I had to wait a week for this to be half-off, as the prices at the 88th & Sheridan ARC are higher on books as they couldn’t keep enough on their shelves. I read a few stories in there already while I was waiting for Dad to finish his shopping/hunting.
The Battle of Midway • a 2011 book in great shape, a no-brainer!
Against the Odds: Battles at Sea 1591-1949 • Looking forward to this one. Also, glad I have never been in a battle at sea.
Sovereigns of the Sea: The Quest to Build the Perfect Renaissance Battleship • I’m a big fan of the old battleships from the age of sails.
One Hundred Days: The Memoirs of the Falkands Battle Group Commander • I remember the Falklands War, and followed it when I was a kid in the Rocky Mountain News and Denver Post back in the day, and I’ve read books about it. This will be interesting, the Admiral’s take on how things went down.
