Dennis Hull tells his stories in an intelligent and funny way. His autobiography is filled with humorous tales of his experiences as a Hull, a Chicago Blackhawk, and his successes on the MPH line. It's a good thing he gives 100 speaking engagements a year because you'll want to meet him after you read this.

Thompson and Thompson is in my opinion, the best book of its kind out there. Many general texts have popped up in the last five or ten years that try to cover medical genetics broadly (a large topic of course) but T&T is the best. A more recent edition would be nice.

I have used mine for a dozen years. I'm ordering one for my son.

This Thompson Student Bible gets it right. The original Thompson Chain reference was a great bible study tool, with many helps, charts, topical studies and archaeological facts. The problem with the former editions, was the editor's insistence of making the reference material available as appendices, and not in context with the text. One might read about the city of Jericho in the book of Exodus, and then see that somewhere on that page where it is mentioned there was a note indicating an archaeological reference was available. But one had to use the "chain" number and then move to the back of the Bible to find the note in the appendices. Now, in this Thompson Student Bible most of the reference material is contextual -- you will find the reference material on the page where the text addresses it first. Students and first time readers of the Bible will read it and benefit from this organization. There won't be that daunting task of figuring out the organization, or the intimidation factor of having to look up all the reference material in the back. Buy this Bible and give it to your teenager, or buy it for yourself. This is a great way to study the scriptures.

This is the greatest book ever on the classic American submachine gun. Every model, prototype, variation, etc. and everything you always wanted to know about the Thompson submachine gun is here. Hundreds of photos, articles by a dozen or so leading authorities on the tommy gun and its development (too late to see service as a World War I "trench broom" as creator Gen. John T. Thompson envisioned it) colorful history in peace and war, use and misuse on both sides of the law (Tracie Hill's original title was "On the Side of Law and Order"; this was also Thompson's original motto--to market the weapon to law enforcement and also offset the gun control nuts--we even had 'em back then!) and revamped resurrection as the classic GI machine gun of World War II. It's all here: the Thompson and its technical, social, political, cops & robbers, military and even movie history. Thompson collectibles. Plus about the best ever account of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre!

I really liked, then immediately lost it. I only have vague memories of what happened, so I won't spoil the finish.

This is an excellent book and should be in the library of every serious martial artist. It features realistic techniques from real life and street defenses that are easily learned.

i love this book! its like watching the movie, but reading it. it takes you back to halloweentown without leaving your house!

This is a great book for reading about the relationship of the US and Japan in the years prior to WWII (It ends with the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor). It describes Japanese strategic aims in a historical context, as well as the pressures that the US was under on both sides of the Pacific to enter WWII. It gives a great accounting of our relations in China during the same period.

A lot of people have heard about FDR's steering us into the war. Read this book if you want to know how and why he did it.
