Beautifully bound edition with durable cover and rough fronts. Although I am not a professional photographer myself, I would have to disagree with the statements that the book is full of typos and that Amherst Media made a bad selection of authors. Searingly powerful” (Andrew Roberts, The Sunday Telegraph), a riveting, impeccably informed chronicle of the final year of the Pacific war.

Flawlessly written, no editorial errors to yank me out of the story, so kudos there too. Key words in the blurb like ‘out of his head on acid’, ‘abusive relationship’ and ‘lost a fortune’ were intriguing yet left me wondering if it was a book I would be able to ‘get into’. I like this book because it uses a variety of graphs, and the story is very engaging. For example, I wasn't too interested in an article on someone who works as a mountaineering guide, or a horse whisperer, or a dog trainer. Another thing that blew me away was the language, or dialect that King invents for the town and which Roland and company pick up on very quickly. ISBN-10 1627795669 Pdf.
