While you're gathering that info, Huck, I want to piggyback on any information regarding a song called Have You Forgotten? I never catch the name of the singer. G. Gordon Liddy plays it all the time. It's fantastic.

Haven't read it but go to Amazon's site - they generally have some good reviews posted if you do an author/title search.

I think he also wrote the French Connection, or the book from which it was based.

The guy on Imus was not Robin Moore, it was a guy named Jack Idema (sp?) who is engaged in the promotion of the book. I have it on very good authority that this guy Idema is not and was not active SF at the time that the events depicted in the book occurred. I am also given to understand that this guy Idema (sp?) has had, shall we say, a "checkered" past.

None is this proves one way or another the quality or the accuracy of the book, but my sources say that you shouldn't believe much, if anything, this guy Idema (sp?) says.

just checked out reviews on Amazon's site. Type in the name of the book in their search engine, then click on the underlined title of the book for reviews. Sounds like a good one to read.

Did he happen to mention anything about "Jawbreaker"? This was a codeword for the Special Operations Group that was in Afghanistan soon after 9/11. Their leader was "Gary" who was retiring but then went to Afghanistan to set up plans with the Northern Alliance. See the article called "America's Shadow Warriors", NY Times, 3/3/03 by Der Spiegel for lots of info; maybe some of it relates to this guy. For other info, try to watch "Covert Operations" on Discovery Channel. Very interesting re-enactment of the early days in Afghanistan before the bombing started. You know they all use aliases so it is difficult to connect them to actual people, but the work they do is incredible.

I've read two books by him. The Green Berets, and a book on the Rhodesian civil war. He has an ideological bias but is a good writer and is fairly accurate. I'll probably read his latest book when it comes paperback.

It seems the book just came out. So it has no customer reviews. I have "Islam Unveiled" on it way to me from the local library. I just reserve books on the internet and it comes to my dinky branch library one mile away.
