      Book Description

      For the first time, one painstakingly researched volume unveils the weapons and ammunition that have served the SEALs in combat operations around the globe. Much more than a mere catalog of arms, this book traces each weapon from the development stage to its current form.

      Also included are exclusive accounts from the men who were among the first to see these weapons used in armed conflict. Written with the cooperation of the UDT/SEAL Museum Association in Florida, and packed with detailed information and photos--some never before in print--this book offers fresh insight into the technology that for decades has sustained the Navy SEALs as an unstoppable military force.

      This book missed it release date many times. I had hoped it would be up to the standards of the authors previous book Weapons of the Navy Seals Volume 1 from a few years ago (there never was the promissed V2). However this book falls short of the mark. The information is dated and there are very few illustrations. The information presented on pre 1990 is pretty good, however the lack of photos and supporting data is a great detraction. I really hope the author does follow up with better supported title. Until then I reccomend Pushies book on Weapons of the Navy Seals.

        Fred J. Pushies. Of all the U.S. military's special forces, none carry the same name recognition, nor capture the public imagination like the U.S. Navy SEALs. In battle gear fashion, the book also includes a chapter describing the techniques SEALs use, as well as glossaries of terms and military abbreviations.

                    Product Description

                    MacKenzie's Pleasure: Barrie Lovejoy needed a savior. The terrorist group, holding her hostage surely wouldn't tolerate her silence much longer. Instead they would silence her, forever. Then out of the darkness he arrived. Grizzled and dangerous, he led Barrie from her captors straight into his sheltering arms. Navy SEAL Zane MacKenzie was the best. No mission had ever gotten the better of him, until now. Saving Barrie Lovejoy had been textbook, except for their desperate night of passion. And though his job as a soldier had ended with her freedom, his duties as a husband had only just begun. For he would sooner die than let the enemy harm the mother of his child. A Game of Chance: Undercover agent Chance MacKenzie knew that the best way to capture an elusive terrorist was to use the man's daughter as bait, so he cleverly seduced Sunny Miller and set out to discover her father's whereabouts. Sunny's own innocence was questionable, and gaining her trust was nearly impossible. And even with all his experience and training, Chance found it difficult to overlook her beauty. However, Chance soon relaized that Sunny wasn't running from him, she was running for her life, and she needed Chance's protection. But keeping Sunny safe would involve telling her the truth, about his mission and what she'd done to his heart. MacKenzie's Mission: Night Wing, the revolutionary test plane with a top-secret weapons system, was Col. Joe "Breed" MacKenzie's number-one priority. And weapons expert Caroline Evans was his number-one distraction. True, the stubborn blonde was giving him the cold shoulder, but Joe hadn't become the best of the best by giving up. Then he discovered someone on the inside was sabotaging Night Wing, and with her late hours and specialized expertise, Caroline seemed the obvious choice. Now Joe had to choose between allegiance to his country and love for his prime suspect.

                    Book Description

                    Sonny's been an outsider all his life.

                    He has never fit into either world: the Moscondagas on the Reservation see him as white; whites see him as Indian. So far, Sonny's managed to harness his anger -- what he calls "the monster" -- in the boxing ring. But Sonny wants out of the Res. He's headed for New York City, where nobody can tell him what to do.

                    Sonny doesn't count on stepping into the middle of a drug war when he gets there -- or on tangling with a tough Harlem boxer-turned-cop named Alfred Brooks. Brooks seems to think that Sonny's got the talent to make it to the top -- to be a contender. But first Sonny's got to learn to be smart, take control of his life, and beat the monster. Only it isn't as easy as it sounds....

                    3 out of 5 stars Boxing Redemption.......2007-07-04

                    Sonny Bear, half Native American teen, feels like things are going really badly in his life. His mother left him with her uncle on a reservation while she went off to see her fortune in some city. He'd like to join the Army, but he is a little too young. He is a talented boxer, competing in small-town fights, but things aren't right there, either. It seems he always ends up getting treated unfairly by the hometown referees.

                    Finally Sonny is fed up. He decides to track down his mother in New York and get her to sign the release papers so he can join the Army and get away from his dead-end life. Things don't go as smoothly as he planned, though.

                    Just moments off the bus in New York, Sonny meets Stick and Doll, a couple of con artists involved in drug dealing. Even though Sonny knows they are probably no good, he can't help being attracted to Doll and wanting to help her. When he gets caught transporting drugs for Stick, he even refuses to cooperate with the police, for fear that not only Stick, but Doll as well will end up arrested.

                    The police officer chasing Stick has a soft spot for Sonny, though, because he used to be a boxer himself and would like to see Sonny succeed instead of falling through the cracks of the system. He intercedes on Sonny's behalf and guides him through boxing training instead of sending him to jail. But Doll still remains on Sonny's mind. Will he be able to resist going back to her and Stick?

                    I felt like I understood the appeal of boxing much more after reading this book. It didn't seem quite as senseless to me as it had before. I liked the character of Jake and his incorporation of Native American training into Sonny's boxing training.

                    I couldn't believe, though, that Sonny would be so stupid as to be blinded by Stick and Doll, who were obviously taking advantage of him. I also didn't believe that Sonny would be allowed out of custody in order to train to be a boxer.

                    5 out of 5 stars The Boxing Brave.......2007-05-26

                    An amazing journey of a teen boy (Sonny Bear) struggling to be somebody. Torn between his friends; Doll and Stick, his parents, and his sport, it's up to him to decide what's best. This book will punch you, beat you into suspense. It makes you think, what would you do in the toughest situation in your life? Will Sonny overcome what faces him in Times Square? Will he grant Officer Brooks' wishes? What family will he choose? Everybody will want to know the "Sonny Bear story." "Sonny Bear is the future." This is a race "straight to the title." Anybody will love the plot. This is a great, inspiring story for all ages, though you may find yourself expecting "more" in the heart pounding moments. This is very much so, an amazing mini-novel by Robert Lipstyle. Easily one of the top five sports books in recent years, it keeps you on the edge of your seat and will always keep you wanting more. Enjoy!

                    The brave was a great book. it was never boring and always kept you wondering what was gonna happen next.it is about a 17 year old native american boy named sonny. he lives ina junk yard with his uncle jake.He boxes in cheap fights called smokers.He gets sick of all the native american talk from his uncle so he moves to the city where he meets stick and dolly. sonny thinks theyre friends but stick uses sonny as a crack mule. hes gets caught and questioned and strikes an officer and gets sent away to juvy. he meets a officer named Alfred Brooks who tries to help him. A gang called the x-men confront him and ask him to join them and sonny turns them down and they stabbed him. he gets out and starts training at donatelli's gym.There he meets henry who owns it. he starts boxing again and stick tells them he was a pro so he gets disqualified but then boxes as a pro. a little after that Alfred confronts stick and stick shoots him. sonny enraged hunts down stick and puts a gun to his head and almost shoots him but decides to bring him to the police and he gets arrested.i would reccomend this book becuase it is exciting and always keeps you guessing.

                    4 out of 5 stars The Brave.......2005-07-21

                    This book is about a young boy name Sonny that box. He has a problem though. His problem is that when he gets angry, he becomes a monster inside. In one way the monster is good. The monster helps him in the ring with his boxing matches. Sonny fights people all throughout the book with the monster still in him.


                    I like this book because it was good. It was interesting. some parts were more interresting than other, like the boxing matches. they were involved. I would recommend this book topeople of all ages, boy/girl. I wouldn't compare this book because it was the best book i have read. The book ended good. The book ending was very good. I was satisfied with the whole book in general

                    3 out of 5 stars Oridnary Tale.......2004-09-07

                    Robert Lipsyte delivers an ordinary tale of a Native American boxer who travels to the big city in order to pursue a more extravagant life than that which he leads in the reservation, in his story, The Brave. This story is too similar to the first to be considered amazing. Sonny encounters practically the same dilemmas that Alfred Brooks did and the only real difference is that this story follows a Native American rather than an African American. The same issues of racism are tackled and the over-all story is one heard over and over again and Lipsyte does not introduce enough of his own style and twists to make it anything more than a decent book. For the young reader, I would suggest this in that it delivers a good message, but for those seeking any kind of challenge or real entertainment, this book is not for you.

                      Book Description

                      In 1838, Nellie Starr, a young Cherokee girl, is caught in the political upheaval of America's westward expansion. Forced by U.S. soldiers to leave their home in Tennessee, Nellie, her family, and thousands of other Cherokees travel the long, dangerous "Trail of Tears" to a new home in the Indian Territory of modern-day Oklahoma. Using actual historical events as a backdrop, this brand-new children's novel teaches lessons of American history and the Christian faith. Can Nellie learn to forgive the people who've turned her world upside down? Nellie the Brave is a compelling read for girls ages eight to twelve.

                      5 out of 5 stars A much needed book about modern day Native people.......1998-11-05

                      There are hundreds of children's books that are about Native Americans, but most of them are folktales and legends - books set in the past. Rarely do we find a top notch picture book about a modern day family. That is exactly what this book is - top notch! Teachers can use it to help their children understand that Native Americans are not exotic, and are not extinct, but living in today's United States. Today, Native people's lives include a blend of elements of their cultural traditions with today's lifestyles.

                        Book Description

                        In dreamlike sequences, a man symbolically confronts the trauma of his family's incarceration in the Japanese internment camps during World War II. This infamous event is made emotionally clear through his meeting a group of children all with strange name tags pinned to their coats. The man feels the helplessness of the children. Finally, desperately he releases the name tags like birds into the air to find their way home with the hope for a time when Americans will be seen as one peoplenot judged, mistrusted, or segregated because of their individual heritage. Sixty years after thousands of Japanese Americans were unjustly imprisoned, the cogent prose and haunting paintings of renowned author and illustrator Allen Say remind readers of a dark chapter in America's history.

                        5 out of 5 stars This Book Will Send Shivers Down Your Spine.......2002-10-20

                        Beautiful, poignant book. Even though it is a children's book, it is abstract, and perhaps hard for even some adults to understand. Despite the symbolic nature of most of the objects in the book, the message is clear, though blurry at the edges.

                        3 out of 5 stars Home of the brave.......2002-10-19

                        This book is about Japanese children in a camp in Calofornia in 1941-1945 (World War 2). Allen Say uses a lot of descriptive writing in this book. It is very mysterious because we do not know who all the children are. I think this is a spectacular book for all agoes. I also recommend this book for anyone who likes descriptive writing.

                        5 out of 5 stars Let's see this on adult shelves, too!.......2002-07-09

                        Children's books are often the best reading -- and I might not find some titles were it not for Amazon's List Makers. "Home of the Brave" by Allen Say is such a discovery, a beautiful book.

                        Lucky is the author who can extend his message through his own poignant illustrations. This story of a man whose kayak is swept over a falls into an underground river is told as if in a dream. Is he climbing out of a kiva? Encountering two children, he walks with them in the desert toward lights which are those of an internment camp.

                        This surreal story tells about a people deserted by the country to whom they had given their allegiance. We remember the injustices during World War II and wonder what scars from today's prejudices and judgments are foretold.

                        How I would like to hear a group of young readers discuss what this story means to them. I hope parents and teachers do not try to escape facing these issues with children. To me there is a plea for understanding and Peace, and there is Hope. I will read it again and again.

                        5 out of 5 stars A haunting account of men, woman and children.......2002-06-04

                        A series of dream sequences imparts the trauma and experience of incarceration in an internment camp: an experience suffered by more than a hundred thousand Japanese Americans during World War II. Say creates a haunting account of men, woman and children who experienced the camps: kids with rudimentary reading skills will find this a thought-provoking introduction to the topic.

                          It's common today to call Fetterman's mistake a 'fight' rather than a massacre, but since I am from the 'old school' of plains history it is a massacre to me.

                          This book has a couple excellent color maps and many, many colorful drawings that embellish the text to produce a very readable book. Though this is listed as juvenile literature, any reader can enjoy its content. The University of Nebraska Press: Lincoln must have had similiar feelings when they reprinted this book, which was originally printed in 1972.

                          The author has also issued several other volumes on the plains Indians and whether for your child, yourself, of both time spent with these small books is time well spent, indeed.

                          1995 was the 'recovery' World Series. The 1994 series was cancelled. Yes, the event that had survived two World Wars, the Federal League intrusion of 1914, and the death of the reserve clause could not survive an internal war between millionaires and billionaires. The only loser was the fans.

                          Enter the Atlanta Braves. The team of the first half of the 1990s, the Braves entered the series yet to win it all despite three previous division titles.

                          Enter the Clevland Indians. Forty years - an entire generation - since their last World Series appearance. Forty-seven years since their last triumph in 1948. And who did they beat for that title? The Braves!!
