Book Description
In 1970 the SAS were called in to support the Sultan of Oman's armed forces in their fierce campaign against a communist armed insurrection. This was first and last a war about people. The task in hand was not to obliterate the enemy but to persuade them to join the government's side and at the same time win the support of the civilians of the Jebel Dhofar. This is the gripping story of the part played in the conflict by squadrons of the 22nd Special Air Service Regiment, the first full SAS squadron in the region. Written by the man who commanded that unit and who successfully raised the first bands of Dhofari irregulars to fight for the Sultan, SAS: Operation Storm provides a unique and personal insight into what was to become one of the most successful counter-insurgency campaigns of the 20th century.

this is NOT a novel.......2004-02-10
this book is about an obscure (to Americans) low-level conflict in the nation of Oman, south of Saudi Arabia. The war, fought from the late 60's through the mid 70's involved a marxist rebel force hiding out in the jebel terrain of western Oman and an irregular native force called firquats that were trained and led by the British Special Air Service. Tony Jeapes was commander of SAS forces at two different points during the war and his narrative covers the issues of raising, training and cooperating with simple muslim soldiers. All the events described actually occured-this is NOT a novel as the previous reviewer claims. In fact this book is still used in Britains Sandhurst Military Academy and in the United States Army as a model for counter-insurgency and low-level conflict. General Jeapes is not a professional writer but his style is simple and readable, conveying accurate information about special forces issues and activities. This book is very relevent today, especially with regards to Afganistan.
Use of diction and overall review.......2002-02-25
Writer Tony Jeapes is very talented in war fair. He needs to help readers understand his writing a little better. He uses hard military diction that an average civilian cannot understand. These terms make the novel very real. one convenience to the hard diction is the word bank in the back of the book. The reader's often find himself or herself flipping to the back just about once every paragraph. To find the meannig of his text.
Tony tells the story in the first person point of view which adds to the realness, because you see everything through his eyes. The Author also uses overwhelming detail. Infact the detail is so overwhelming that the reader tends to loose track of the plot of the novel.
this novel was published for all war veterans of any kind because they may be able to relate to this novel. this book also would be interesting to young people aspiring to be in the armed forces. this book would not be appealing for anyone looking for a fictional heroism novel. This book is very non-fictional.
Book Description
The SAS, Britain's elite Special Air Service Regiment, is one of the most revered and feared special-operations units in the world. Its high profile operations include the hunt for Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan's Tora Bora caves following 9/11 and the storming of the Iranian Embassy in London in 1980. But until now the SAS's precise origins were unknown. Most thought the renowned regiment was the brainchild of just one man, David Stirling, but in this book, Tim Jones identifies other major factors that played a part in shaping the concept of the SAS.
Jones's investigation draws extensively on primary sources and a close examination of recent regiment histories. While not dismissing Stirling's considerable contributions, Jones takes into account the influence of such notables as Dudley Clarke and Archibald Wavell on the formation of the regiment. Written in a style that will appeal to the general and academic reader alike, this book offers a compelling and provocative look at how the formidable group came into being.

A extremely detaited account of how and why the SAS was formed.......2007-01-08
During World War II the British formed a large number of special operations forces such as SOE, Long Range Desert Group (LRDG), Lovat's Scouts, Special Night Squads, and many more. Several traditional raiding forces, such as the Royal Marines and the Commandoes grew is size and capability.
The most famous of these units was the Special Air Service (SAS), which is one of the few organizations to survive into modern times. The author, who has written several books on the SAS, is obviously extremely knowledgeable on the subject. The level of detail is staggering. The author mentions the names of hundreds of early members of the SAS and how they started their military careers in special operations.
The book is not an action packed story of daring raids and special missions, instead it is a painstakingly detailed account of how and why the SAS came to be. Due mainly to Winston Churchill's fascination with special forces and the dedication of several officers and NCOs the SAS was born. The majority of the book is an account of the personalities and bureaucratic dealings that led Britain to form the SAS, despite already having a number of other special operations units. The analysis of the family and school connections of the upper class officers who were drawn to form special operations units was particularly well done.
I found it interesting that Churchill continued to believe in special forces, despite very few early successes. The book details several early pre-SAS operations that were either failures or minimal successes.
To the serious student of special operations military history, the book is a treasure. The author's detailed use of original sources and deep research should be commended. Those looking for a fast-paced military action adventure may want to look elsewhere.
A Well Done History that Complements his other books.......2006-07-09
As the sub-title says, this is the story of the beginnings of the SAS, the foremost British special operations unit. While there have been persistent stories that the SAS was the brainchild of one man, David Sterling, there were a lot of individuals involved.
In most wars there have been such small elite units being formed. In America, even before the Revolutionary war Rogers Rangers were formed to participate in the French and Indian War. In World War I Laurence of Arabia led a similar organization behing Turkish lines. In World War II there were many such organizations: the Commandos, Merrill's Marauders, Ord Wingate's Chindits and so on.
During this time the SAS was formed, and alone of these organizations remains not only a viable, but a well known, well respected, and very active organization. This is a beautifully written story about how the SAS came to be. While it stands alone as a history, it fits in very well with the same authors other books on the SAS.
Book Description
The covert, clandestine operations of the Special Air Service Regiment (SAS), from the jungles of Malaya, Borneo and Brunei to the deserts and mountains of the Middle East, have been widely documented. There has always been intense fascination in the SAS, stoked by the regiment's "closed" organization and secretive activities. But no period of activity has remained more secret than the vital years after the Second World War when the regiment seemingly expired, only to rise miraculously from the dead to fight Communism in the Malaya emergency. Tim Jones's fascinating history pieces together the evidence to show that while the Malaya emergency re-established the SAS as a unique source of counter-guerilla expertise, the regiment lived on and was covertly involved in the Greek Civil War of 1945-49, a war unmatched in savagery until the Bosnian conflict in the 1990s.
Book Description
"Who Dares Wins" is the motto of one of modernhistorys first elite corps, the British Special Air Service, (the SAS). Trained in espionage and sabotage, anti-terrorism and guerrilla warfare, the SAS has been confounding their enemies for over fifty years. From the desert sands fighting Rommel's famed Afrika Korps to the daring nighttime raid on Argentinean aircraft in the Falklands the SAS has the reputation of being the most feared and successful of all nations' special forces.First hand accounts from assault team members, full color maps, diagrams detailing each member's movement, and rare real action photo- graphy, complete the author's narrative, make this an excellent guide to the combat history of the SAS.
Customer Reviews:
Not bad for an introduction.......2004-11-15
This book was a thorough history into the British Special Air Service's exploits. It has a lot of information on contemporary SAS operations not usually covered in other books or media; specifically, operations in Sierra Leone and the Balkans. I learned some new facts (which always sets a book apart from others) about the Falklands campaign. The book has a lot of good detail (tactics and strategies) on various operations that I have not seen in other SAS books. The author has a hard time figuring out whether the Royal Marines SBS is the Special Boat Service, Section, or Squadron. That oversight, as well as punctuation and grammatical errors that were blatant throughout this book, required that I rate it 3-stars. I nonetheless recommend this book as a very entertaining and informative piece of literature.

Book Description
From 1963 to 1966 Britain successfully waged a secret war to keep the Federation of Malaysia free from domination by Soekarno's Indonesia and by Chinese Communists. At the forefront of this campaign was the SAS, Special Air Service, an elite branch of the military whose essence is secrecy and whose tools are bold initiative, surprise, and high skill.
Working in four-man patrols, the SAS teams first made friends with the head-hunting border tribes and even trained some of them as an irregular military force. As the conflict continued, SAS teams went beyond the borders into Indonesia, where they tracked clown enemy camps, fired on supply mutes, staged ambushes, and attacked the soldiers in their riverboats.
By talking to those who were there, Peter Dickens has recreated what it was really like to fight in the jungles of Malaysia. He also captures the bravery and relentless pursuit of excellence that make the SAS the elite and prestigious regiment it is.
Customer Reviews:
Tough to get thru.......2003-02-08
An interesting topic for SAS fans but this book is as dry as a popcorn you know what. Pictures are grainy and/or poor quality.
Rather disappointing considering who the author's ancestor was (Charles Dickens!)
Recommend this book if you are doing a research paper and need the info anyway you can get it otherwise look for some other excellent SAS books elsewhere.
Book Description
A military history exclusive: The most important book ever written about the SAS, in the words of its founding members.
“We’ve been approached something like twenty-five times since the war. I kicked each out the window because they weren’t going to make it with the integrity we require the story of the SAS to be told.”
–Colonel Sir David Stirling, OBE, DSO, Founder of the SAS
Based on over 120 hours of recently uncovered video and audiotape, The Originals tells the story of the birth of the Special Air Services in the words of its founding members. Even David Stirling, founder of the regiment, contributed to the project (most historians believe he died without giving a single interview). But here, for the first time, is their own story of how the SAS was formed.
It is a surprisingly human story about a gang of misfits coming together to create a unit like no other. There was the maverick son of a Scottish laird; a boy who lied about his age to enlist; a policeman; a cheeky cockney; a Lincolnshire boxer; an Irish rugby international imprisoned for beating up his commanding officer; an Oxford rowing president and a quietly-spoken man of God.
The Originals covers the regiment’s formation in 1941 to its supposed disbanding in 1945. With only two founding members alive today, it is not only an important document but also a thrilling and moving read that will leave you reeling.

Book Description
In 1980, Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher had taken over the leadership of the West and the Soviets had invaded Afghanistan—the most crucial battle of the Cold War was about to begin. In the high mountain passes of the north-west Frontier and the Hindu Kush, the CIA and MI6 saw an opportunity to bring the mighty Soviet army to its knees. Their weapon: the Islamic guerrillas of the Afghan Mujahideen. The first Western agent to link up with the Mujahideen was Tom Carew, a young ex-SAS soldier with a talent for "black bag" covert operations. In the course of an extraordinary year, Carew led a series of reconnaissance missions inside Afghanistan; he took part in an astonishing attempt to hijack a shipment of anti-aircraft missiles from Communist Bulgaria for use by the guerrillas; and he set up the first western-sponsored training camp for Mujahideen in Pakistan. In the course of these operations Carew was accepted and befriended by the fundamentalist Mujahideen, and became as close to them as any European individual could ever get.

Average.......2002-04-06
I read this book in the spring of 2001 and at the time I was somewhat interested in a war that I did not know a lot about. Given the events post 9/11 it would be interesting to reread the book. The book was ok, it offered some interesting facts of the British Special Forces operations, but it did not provide a good overall view of the conflict, country or people of Afghanistan. There are a number of books now coming out about this conflict and part of the world that would probably offer a better overview. If you are interested in British Special Forces then this would be a good book for you.

Light, entertaining reading where you can learn something.......2007-06-09
In the seventies, I worked construction and spent a great deal of time in a truck moving from job to job. During that travel time, the radio was always on and I heard many episodes of the Paul Harvey "The Rest of the Story" broadcasts. They were always interesting and it was a game to try to determine what the "rest of the story" punch line was going to be.
This book is a collection of many of those snippets that made up the "Rest of the Story" radio program. When reading them, I could still hear that very distinctive voice of Paul Harvey as he read through it. I enjoyed this book; it is an example of light, entertaining reading where you can actually learn something.
Always interesting.......2007-05-13
After reading other items about Paul Harvey's "The Rest of the Story" segments, it sounds as though the accuracy can be somewhat debated, but what can't be is how entertaining each story is.
It doesn't quite sound the same when I read it our loud, but then my Paul Harvey impression isn't top notch. Just reading it though makes one think back in time a bit, and helps to put some humanity to people who were otherwise larger than life.
If you're at all a fan of his radio show (which is still excellent), get this book and value it as a treasured part of your personal library, and as a link to a past way of telling stories.
Good stuff!

Whimsical and entertaining.......2007-08-12
Lewis Thomas' essays offer the creative and whimsical perspectives of a scientist. I doubt the non-biologist would appreciate these 'notes of a biology watcher' much, but as a biologist myself, I have to say that this is one of my favorite books for light reading.
No, I don't get a great deal of new knowledge from reading Lives of a Cell, but he clearly looked at science and the world in ways that I wouldn't have thought of. I've caught myself chuckling at his wit with each and every essay - and there are quite a few in there - and I re-read them when the occasion arises (usually while passing the time during traveling).
And so, in a phrase, I'd describe this book as 'light reading and wit for biologists.' If that's what you're looking for, it's a very good book indeed.
The John D. Connection.......2007-04-24
Chapter 9 of "The Lonely Silver Rain" by John D. MacDonald, Fawcett 1985, opens with McGee "...reading Lewis Thomas and for the first time he depressed me, even when he said that the glue that seems to hold mankind in some kind of lasting stasis is everyone's desire to be useful."
Did MacDonald and Thomas meet at Harvard? He was in the MBA program in 1938-39. Was Thomas in the medical school at that time? MacDonald died in 1986 while undergoing heart surgery. I guess if Thomas depressed him, he had it pretty bad.
Awe Inspiring.......2007-03-10
In recommending this book to an acquaintance, I remembered how much I loved it. I read it a long time ago, perhaps 20 years ago, and still feel that it was one of the best reads of my lifetime. Contrary to reinforcing a rift between religion and science, this book seems to marry miracle to biology; it also marries macrocosm to microcosm. My reaction when I finished it, was to want to dance and sing! The content of this book is simply amazing! If you want to have your awe and curiosity piqued, I recommend it--with enthusiasm and joy!
Amazing.......2007-01-09
This is truly an amazing work. Thomas's writing is beautiful and the stories fantastic with just enough humor. I have learned so much and enjoyed it all at the same time. I highly recommend this book. If you are not sure of something, look it up! Just think how smart you will become.
Science for interested non-scientists.......2006-11-14
I selected this book from the Modern Library list of Top 100 Non-Fiction books with the trepidation of a non technical person with only moderate interest in science. Mr. Thomas, however, immediately disarms the non technical mind and proceeds to fascinate as he presents the very familiar in totally new perspectives. His description of our bodies as a system of mitochondria pursuing their own interests with total disinterest of our consciousness as an entity is startling while, at the same time, it becomes immediately obvious. A discussion of disease as a "biologic misinterpretation of borders" by microscopic entities also causes the reader to see the well known in new ways.
There is enough author left over
to leave us with some straight-forward observations: "The great secret known to internists...is that most things get better by themselves." Or: "If an idea cannot move on its own , pushing it doesn't help; best to let it lie there."
Thomas' last 2 sections leave both the secular and non-secular with a strong affirmation of the unliklihood of the miracle of life. Overall, this is a brief (150 page) book that deserves a wide readership.
Book Description
Science education is experiencing a revitalization, as it is recognized that science should be accessible to everyone, not just society’s future scientists. One way to make the study of science more substantive to the non-major is to require a laboratory component for all science courses. The subject of applied botany with its emphasis on the practical aspects of plant science, the authors believe, will be appealing to the non-major as it exemplifies how a basic science can be applied to problem solving. Laboratory Manual for Applied Botany will make students realize that the study of plants is relevant to their lives and that they can participate in the discovery process of science. Although the manual includes much of the basic plant anatomy found in standard botany manuals, it differs in taking a practical approach, examining those plants and plant products that have sustained or affected human society.
Book Description
Recent advances in imaging technology reveal, in real time and great detail, critical changes in living cells and organisms. This manual is a compendium of emerging techniques, organized into two parts: specific methods such as fluorescent labeling, and delivery and detection of labeled molecules in cells; and experimental approaches ranging from the detection of single molecules to the study of dynamic processes in organelles, organs, and whole animals. Although presented primarily as a laboratory manual, the book includes introductory and background material and could be used as a textbook in advanced courses. It also includes a DVD containing movies of living cells in action, created by investigators using the imaging techniques discussed in the book.
The editors, David Spector and Robert Goldman, whose previous book was Cells: A Laboratory Manual, are highly respected investigators who have taught microscopy courses at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, the Marine Biology Laboratory at Woods Hole, and Northwestern University.
