Inside the Danger Zone
Author: Harold Lee Wise
Publisher: US Naval Institute Press
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
In May 1987, an Iraqi plane fired two missiles into USS Stark, a lone U.S. Navy frigate on patron in the Gulf. The missiles severely damaged the ship and killed thirty-seven sailors. This deadly attack, which Iraq claimed was accidental, brought heightened attention to the Persian Gulf and heralded the beginning of a new era in U.S. Middle Eastern policy. From then until the end of the Iran-Iraq War, American forces carried out an unprecedented series of military operations in the Gulf. A planned tanker protection missile evolved into a naval quasi-war with Iran and culminated in the largest sea-air battle since World War II. Inside the Danger Zone is a history of U.S. military involvement in the Persian Gulf in 1987 and 1988-a time of burning ships, air strikes, and secret missions-the prelude to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, Desert Storm, and the most recent invasion of Iraq.

The Whalestoe Letters
Author: Mark Z. Danielewski

Book Description
Between 1982 and 1989, Pelafina H. Lièvre sent her son, Johnny Truant, a series of letters from The Three Attic Whalestoe Institute, a psychiatric facility in Ohio where she spent the final years of her life. Beautiful, heartfelt, and tragic, this correspondence reveals the powerful and deeply moving relationship between a brilliant though mentally ill mother and the precocious, gifted young son she never ceases to love. Originally contained within the monumental House of Leaves, this collection stands alone as a stunning portrait of mother and child. It is presented here along with a foreword by Walden D. Wyhrta and eleven previously unavailable letters.
