Although Fawcett was a longtime and expert adventurer,he and his two companions (including his 21-year-old son) were never seenagain. When journalist David Grann heard Fawcett's story, he joined the ranksof those trying to learn what happened to him--about 100 of whom have losttheir own lives in the process. Grann's foray into the jungle--and elsewhere--to discover the truth is interwoven with Fawcett's adventures, which arebased on the explorer's diaries and other accounts. Featuring blow-darts,giant snakes,and hostile locals, this thrilling narrative reads "with all the pace andexcitement of a movie thriller" (The New York Times).

Years later, after that unforgettable experience in Afghanistan, he would return to the United States to teach history tofuture Navy and Marine Corps officers at the Naval Academy. He had been intheirposition once, and he had put his education to the test. How would he use his own life-changing experience to prepare them.

Patterson Publisher: Arcadia Pub Check Library Catalog Pub Date: 03/02/2009 ISBN-13: 9780738560564 ISBN-10: 0738560561Missionary-geographer John Heckewelder was prophetic in the 1790s when he mapped the place where the Cuyahoga River flows into Lake Erie. He wrote,"Cujahaga will hereafter be a place of great importance." In 1796, surveyorsarrived to plot a new town and named it after their superintendent, MosesCleaveland. Soon Cleveland (the a was omitted on early maps) was a magnet for inventors and entrepreneurs. By 1829-1830, a lighthouse was necessary to support lake traffic spurred by shipbuilding, shipping, and population growth. A succession of taller, brighter structures has guided mariners into the Cleveland harbor, creating a splendid history. Remarkable people have tended these sometimes-silent sentinels through decades of calm nights and dramatic storms, subtly contributing to the region's growth and prosperity.Joker One: A Marine Platoon's Story of Courage, Sacrifice, and Brotherhood- by Donovan Campbell Publisher: Random House Check Library Catalog Pub Date: 3/10/2009 ISBN-13: 9781400067732 ISBN-10: 1400067731As a junior at Princeton, Donovan Campbell decided to attend Marine Corps Officer Candidate School as a résumé-builder. Though he didn't enjoy it, heultimately decided to join the Marines because of the challenges it offered. Threeyears later, in 2004, the platoon he led was sent to Ramadi, one of Iraq'smostdangerous cities. For seven months Lt. Campbell and his men patrolled the streets, defended themselves in ambushes, fought insurgents, and managed toretaincontrol of their area. His depiction of the interpersonal dynamics of his team, the horrors of combat, and his ground-level view of the war in Iraqcombine to present a "valuable supplement to big-picture histories of the war's first year" (Kirkus Reviews). The Third Reich at War - by Richard J. Evans Publisher: Penguin Press Check Library Catalog Pub Date: 3/19/2009 ISBN-13: 9781594202063 ISBN-10: 1594202060 In this third volume in a trilogy on the history of Nazi Germany,historian Richard Evans traces the collapse of the Third Reich. In additionto following the rise and fall of the military, Evans explores the ways in which the Nazis gained compliance and support and examines Hitler's campaign of racial subjugation and genocide. Unsurprisingly, Booklist calls this comprehensive tome "a chilling and often downright sickening account of savagery on a gigantic scale," but also applauds Evans' range and his efforts to describe how the war affected ordinary people. At nearly a thousand pages, this is no quick read, but it's well worth the effort for those interested in World War II history. It Happened in April The Fall of Berlin, 1945 - by Antony Beevor Publisher: Penguin Books Check Library Catalog Pub Date: 5/1/2003 ISBN-13: 9780142002803 ISBN-10: 0142002801 Though this compelling chronicle of the last days of the Third Reichcovers from January to May, 1945, it was in late April that Soviet forcesentered Berlin. In addition to parsing out retribution for recent Nazi atrocities, they hoped to capture German scientists and gain the knowledge necessary to build anatomic bomb--a motivation that Allied forces were unaware of. The Sovietsand their brutal approach on Berlin are the focus of The Fall of Berlin, 1945, but military historian Antony Beevor also attends to the miserable conditions of Berlin's three million starving citizens, the desperate maneuvers by Nazi leaders, and the actions taken by American and British forces.

The planes--16 B-52 bomberscrewed by volunteers--flew halfway across the Pacific Ocean before reachingtheir targets; after deploying their bombs, they carried on towards unoccupied China.
