Review ------ Praise for The Ghost Warriors "An engrossing, if very disturbing, chronicle of a successful program of counterterrorism."--Booklist "An action-packed, nondidactic examination of how Israel's special operation units rose to the challenge of the Palestinian intifada...A detailed book that is refreshingly full of sound research."--Kirkus Reviews Praise for Samuel M. Katz's previous books "A riveting read."--Booklist "Detailed profiles of the men and processes involved, and a moment-by-moment account of the planning and execution of an elaborate raid. . . .provides important details of a case that considered a tragically ignored wake-up call."--Publishers Weekly "A gripping first-hand narrative."--The Huffington Post "Heart-stopping, minute-by-minute detail . . .A tale of valor on the ground."--Graydon Carter, Vanity Fair "This work by terrorist expert Katz is very descriptive, reading almost like a thriller such as John le Carre's The Little Drummer Girl."--Library Journal "[An] authoritative account of a still-controversial spasm of anti-American violence."--Kirkus Reviews "Tells the story of a Washington too blinded by politics to see the facts. A wonderful book."--Robert Baer, New York Times bestselling author of See No Evil "A compelling read."--The Atlantic Wire About the Author ---------------- Samuel M.
