Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Is it dusty in here question?
Revisado: 09-20-21
Just buy it. The science is nice but the story is better. Trying not to spoil the story and anything I say is going to do it. But this will have you laughing, mad, crying.. Another well done story

A book that I wish was longer
Revisado: 09-24-20
Usually I think books could do with more aggressive editing. This book however tackles some big topics and could do with more depth in order to help the reader form a more solid opinion about the conclusion. Perhaps the fact that it’s not where I want it is intentional. But it is an interesting topic

Historia
World War II at Sea offers a global perspective, focusing on the major engagements and personalities and revealing both their scale and their interconnection: the U-boat attack on Scapa Flow and the Battle of the Atlantic; the "miracle" evacuation from Dunkirk and the pitched battles for control of Norway fjords; Mussolini's Regia Marina - at the start of the war the fourth-largest navy in the world - and the dominance of the Kidö Butai and Japanese naval power in the Pacific; Pearl Harbor then Midway; and much more.

Dense subject made consumable
Revisado: 08-18-20
I've read and watched pretty much everything I could get my hands on re: WWII. This book is able to parse a big dense topic and break it up into consumable pieces without making them disconnected. Well done

Historia
Before Gabrielle Hamilton opened her acclaimed New York restaurant Prune, she spent 20 fierce, hard-living years trying to find purpose and meaning in her life. Above all she sought family, particularly the thrill and the magnificence of the one from her childhood that, in her adult years, eluded her. Hamilton’s ease and comfort in a kitchen were instilled in her at an early age when her parents hosted grand parties, often for more than 100 friends and neighbors. The smells of spit-roasted lamb, apple wood smoke, and rosemary garlic marinade became necessary to her.

This is a book about someone who happens to cook
Revisado: 08-18-20
Unlike most autobiographies or books written by the chef author, this book is more an autobiography and less of a kitchen centric tale like you would find with other books of the genre. If most books are 70/30 kitchen/cooking discussion vs life, this is the opposite.

The year is 1970. Emma Gable, a blind teenager coming of age in a small industrial town in Western New York, is about as far from the seismic cultural transformations rocking campuses and city streets across America as a person can get.

Well done in nearly every aspect

From production to story this is a good book. I think there was only one point where I thought plot motives didnt really make sense but overall this is 10 out of 10.

Great storytelling. Makes you do a lot of thinking IMO

If you like tales of war this is pretty good. If you want to learn a thing or two about SOG then it's also pretty good. Narration is well done.

Great book. Storyline was well done. I can't think of many parts I would cut. I could totally see this being a very successful movie.

Historia
On the morning of April 26, 1986, Europe witnessed the worst nuclear disaster in history: the explosion of a reactor at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Soviet Ukraine. Dozens died of radiation poisoning, fallout contaminated half the continent, and thousands fell ill. In Chernobyl, Serhii Plokhy draws on new sources to tell the dramatic stories of the firefighters, scientists, and soldiers who heroically extinguished the nuclear inferno. He lays bare the flaws of the Soviet nuclear industry....

Historia
Drawing on previously unpublished eyewitness accounts, prizewinning historian Donald L. Miller has written what critics are calling one of the most powerful accounts of warfare ever published. Here are the horror and heroism of World War II in the words of the men who fought it, the journalists who covered it, and the civilians who were caught in its fury. Miller gives us an up-close, deeply personal view of a war that was more savagely fought - and whose outcome was in greater doubt - than one might imagine. This is the war that Americans on the home front would have read about had they had access to previously censored testimony.

Some more in depth on HBOs The Pacific
Revisado: 11-11-17
There are a lot of interesting, more personal stories - specifically about the pacific theatre that could be lesser known. There's also a fair amount of narrative that was used in making The Pacific by HBO. Definitely worth it if you enjoyed that series.

Historia
Narrated by Emmy Award–winning actor Martin Sheen, The Home Front: Life in America During World War II takes listeners into the lives of Americans at home—part of the Greatest Generation—who supported the war effort and sustained the country during wartime. The war brought immediate, life-changing shifts: the rationing of meat, dairy products, and sugar; an explosion of war-related jobs; and, despite mixed signals, a greater role for women working outside the home.

Great "First Hand Account" Stories
Revisado: 11-11-17
so much of WWII is fairly static because the same overarching themes are discussed. This is interesting because it presents some new narratives even if youre an advanced "historian" of the european or pacific theatre.
