Summary: great book by a great author
Comment: In Harms Way has to be the only book I have actually read from cover to cover. This is the only book that has ever intrested me. It took me two days to read this book, i enjoyed it so much I am starting to read it again.
The author (Doug Stanton) does a good job. If you read at the end of the book you find out that he actually talked to many of the servivors and even joined there club the started. the survivors really enjoy Doug and are happy to tell him anything that he wants, and it shows in his writing. The book goes into such detail it is kind of teaching you things you may have never known.
I recommend this book to anyone and everyone that is into war stories or just sruvival stuff.

Summary: In Honor of Captain McVay and his Crew
Comment: This is perhaps the most touching thing I have read. It is heart breaking as well as meaningful. There is no boredom or meaningless detail in this one. Read it in honor of these men. You will be blessed.

Summary: A Sea Story of the First Order
Comment: Once you start this book you better be prepared to put off what other things you have on your agenda. You won't be able to put "In Harm's Way" down. Author Stanton has blended a historical account with personal glimpses of individual bravery to create a narrative that you won't soon forget. Two thoughts haunted me after reading this book: First, I felt as if I personally knew some of the officers and men who served on the Indianapolis, thanks to Stanton's detailed, three-dimensional descriptions; and second, it's hard to complain about the inconveniences of our dailey lives today when we consider the horrors that the crew of the Indianpolis went through.
