    Critical Review of Undaunted Courage

    Critical Review of Undaunted Courage Stephen Ambrose’s Undaunted Courage is a remarkable piece of nonfiction literature. His work is so thorough that one wonders how he has time to do much more. Yet he has created time in his life to go west and go camping and hiking and canoeing in the summers with his family.

  • Macbeth Review

    Macbeth Review

    Roman Polanski's version of macbeth is certainly the most real and immediate filmed version of the play. The sets, costumes (or lack thereof), and casting all work to create an accurate depiction of "nasty, brutal, and short" 11th century life. And of course, there is the wonderful insight of Shakespeare's language to engage our modern sensibilities. One can only thank Polanski for casting such relatively young actors as his leads. Kings lived and died young

    One of the enduring lessons of warfare is the advantage of taking and holding the high ground. The edge gained from being able to look down upon the enemy, detect his scheme of maneuver, and counter it from a position of dominance has long been recognized by military strategists. The need to deny this advantage to the enemy led to pioneering efforts in aerial combat in the early twentieth century and, in turn, revolutionized warfare.
