Among Warriors in Iraq: True Grit, Special Ops, and Raiding in Mosul and Fallujah

Mike Tucker

The Lyons Press, 2005

The guy at least tried...
Mike Tucker was just this goofy correspondent dude who shows up right before we get on the helicopters to raid outside Mosul for a big pile of mortar rounds. He misspelled my platoon leader's name, but hey, he was the only guy we had taking notes on that mission. At least somebody noticed I was doing a good job on the mine detector even if it was my second day. Still, I didn't even know I was in ...

School of the Moon: The Highland Cattle-Raiding Tradition
Stuart McHardy

Birlinn Publishers, 2004

Behind the tales of cateran raiding in the Scottish Highlands was an age old practice, beloved of the clan warriors. Trained in the ways of the School of the Moon they liked little better than raiding other clans to lift their cattle and disappear into the wild mountains under the cover of darkness. If pursued and battle became necessary, that was no problem to the clansmen. This traditional practice of the Scottish Highland warriors, ...

1 review
Danilyn Rutherford

Princeton University Press, 2002

Modernity at the Fringes
In Danilyn Rutherford's Raiding the Land of the Foreigners: The Limits of the Nation on an Indonesian Frontier, the author seeks "to make sense of the strange combination of complicity and resistance with which her informants in Irian Jaya in the early 1990s dealt with the New Order" (112). In so doing, she posits a recursive application of what she terms a fetishization of the foreign (4), such ...

Western Apache Raiding and Warfare

1 review
Grenville Goodwin

University of Arizona Press, 1971

EXCELLENT
Love the cover on the 1971 edition the best , but even with the newer cover it all has the same information inside. Fantastic photos and illustrations. Apache style is interesting and to hear the stories direct from them makes it even more real, understanding what they went through and feeling their pain at times too. Life seems unfair sometimes, but there is a reason for everything. Bottom Line, ...

True Stories of the Sbs: A History of Canoe Raiding and Underwater Warfare

1 review
Robin Hunter

Virgin Publishing, 1998

True Stories of the Sbs
A rare account of a seldom known area of British Special Forces. Historically, it is detailed, however most of the book pertains to the 2nd World War. It only delves into post WWII right near the end of the book. Written in the third person, it fails to immerse the reader into the murky world of the Special Boat Service, though it does drive home the incredible sacrifices and losses the ...
