When They Call You a Terrorist - A Black Lives Matter Memoir
When They Call You a Terrorist - A Black Lives Matter Memoir

Review:Approached the book with an open mind, and can say its only good for dark humor. Self perpetuating, its another romanticized story of a struggle that only exists in a simple mind with ego distortion . One star for the ghost writter who pinned it. Read more

and the King's Mother - The Women of the Cousins' War
and the King's Mother - The Women of the Cousins' War

Review:After reading all of Philippa Gregory's books about the cousin's war, at first I was disappointed that this book didn't read like her novels. Instead it
was more like reading a history book. As one who is interested in this subject I found this book informative as well as entertaining. The bibliography shows the intensive research which she as well as the other authors engaged in writing this book. Read more

A True Story of American Soldiers Abandoned by Their High Command
A True Story of American Soldiers Abandoned by Their High Command

Review:It showed how far we have gone away from contact with the enemy to win the war like in WW2. To many lawyers making up rules of engagement and prosecuting for violation that would have got a medal instead of court marshalled. Read more

Edward I and the Forging of Britain - A Great and Terrible King
Edward I and the Forging of Britain - A Great and Terrible King

Review:Doctor Morris writes an interesting and thorough book about Edward I. He describes his good and bad attributes and seems to take a neutral position and let the facts determine my opinion of Edward. His style of writing is easy to follow but the book appeals to the reader with a background in English history as well as the newcomer to the period. I can recommend this book without reservation.
