| 1. |  | The Winds of War from Back Bay Books Price: $11.55 Customer Review:  I was thrilled to find The Winds of War on Kindle just days after I'd been thinking I'd love to reread it -- there's nothing better than reading a really long book on a Kindle, for weight reasons alone. But the formatting seems to have been done either in haste or with no oversight whatsoever... |

| 2. |  | War and Remembrance from Back Bay Books Price: $11.55 Customer Review:  For me this is a fond memory of when I first read this wonderful book thirty years ago. Although it seems to me to be a sequel to "Winds of War", the author, Herman Wouk, says it is not necessary to read number one before reading the second. However they're read is up to the reader. I found both... |

| 4. |  | The Caine Mutiny: A Novel from Back Bay Books Price: $10.87 Customer Review: This is a very cynical novel. It also lacks credibility. Captain Queeg is not a believable character. Ten or fourteen years out of the Naval Academy (depending on which passage in the book) and old for a Lt. Commander, his superiors would know that he cannot accept responsibility for his own... |

| 5. |  | Marjorie Morningstar from Back Bay Books Price: $10.87 Customer Review:  Having so admired Wouk's "The Winds of War" and "War and Remembrance", I sought out another combination page-turner and worthy literary endeavor. This isn't it. I often read "old" novels, going back to the 19th century, so I'm familiar with the conventions of expected behavior from young... |

| 6. |  | The Hope: A Novel from Back Bay Books Price: $6.99 Customer Review:  Herman Wouk does a great job telling his story of Israel from the Israeli point of view, but it is a one sided viewpoint nonetheless. What is disturbing to me is the fact that in the Winds of War/War and Remembrance, Wouk managed to present the German side, even portraying one or two... |

| 7. |  | This Is My God from Back Bay Books Price: $11.55 Customer Review:  It was nice to read this explanation of Jewish customs and what not. I've ready many books that are overviews but this had alot of FEELING. To read the book feels like you are having a personal explanation... with good comparison, wit and humor. * * * People who read this will also like... |

| 8. |  | Youngblood Hawke from Back Bay Books Price: $11.53 Customer Review: One of my favorite books of all time. I could read this book a million times. Great everything in this book. I can't say a bad thing about it. I just had to give it some love. |

| 9. |  | The Glory: A Novel from Back Bay Books Price: $11.55 Customer Review: I generally like historical novels because the author generally fills in information about what it is was like for ordinary folks during the subject time period, and so, so often the author presents historical facts which I may have forgotten or never had known. Michener's "Poland" is a wonderful... |

| 10. |  | Inside, Outside: A Novel from Back Bay Books Price: $11.55 Customer Review: Memories of the necessity of living one way in the outside world and another way in the Jewish community.It includes some nostalgic and some humorous vingnettes. It was a bit too long in my opinion. |

| 11. |  | Raintree County from Chicago Review Press Price: $13.57 Customer Review: Maybe to that limited set of writers who thinak they are the Homers of today. But a great american novel would be read by many people with differing levels of appreciation and determined to refelct the CURRENT and essence of America (oh what about south america) not just the mythical past. |

| 12. |  | City Boy from Back Bay Books Price: $14.35 Customer Review: I've read this book at least 'more than' 15 times. I don't know where I got it, as a birthday gift, I believe, but wherever, I took to it as I have to few books in my life. I was unathletic as a kid, though not as smart as the fictional Herbie, so that helps. The book is... |

| 13. |  | The Letters of Jonathan Netanyahu: The Commander of the Entebbe Rescue Force from Gefen Publishing House, Ltd Price: $14.93 Customer Review: This is one of my favorite books. It takes you into the heart and soul of a son of Israel. Yoni has become one of my favorite people in history because of this book. It can be hard to read at times, like when he says to Bibi about why he lives in Israel and not in the US. He talks about explaining... |

| 16. | [no image] | Don't Stop the Carnival from Doubleday And Company Customer Review: A Jimmy Buffett recommendation. Humor and melancholy blend in a book ultimately more tragic than funny. It evokes a place of pleasurable escape that we want to exist in Paradise, but that can only be built out of pain. Its easy to see why JB loves this book, and why his fans will find it both... |

The collection of stories is nothing more than a collection of extended abstracts of the real stories. Many of the 'abstracts' are taken out of context and the reader does... |

| 19. |  | THE CAINE MUTINY a Novel of World War II from Doubleday and Co. Customer Review: What a great book. On the U.S.S. Caine... an unimportant ship that sees little action during "The War" a mutiny is brewing. But its not a standard keel-hauling mutiny. Also, there is a trial after the mutiny. The author does a perfect job of taking you along for a ride. half the time... |

| 20. |  | War and Remembrance by Herman Wouk. Vol 2 of 2. from Little Brown Customer Review: The book came in in good shape. The problem is this book is in two parts and when I orignally ordered my intention was to order both. Received two copies of Vol 2, from different suppliers. Price was only $4 ea, so don't want to return one where postage is just about that much. I'm in the... |

But it turned out to be a well-written, entertaining fast-paced page turner that maintained my interest. The story involves a physicist who used to work with the Superconducting Supercollider (SSC) in... |

We have a young network employee who tries to balance the interests... |
