(4) 4-6 U.S. Special Forces series. These informative volumes highlight three Special Forces units' history, selection criteria, training, and weaponry. Notable accomplishments (especially anti-terrorism initiatives and hostage rescues) and controversies, as well as treatment in film, literature, and the media, are covered. Large color photos and well-placed sidebars support the main texts; the tiny type-size may be off-putting to some readers. There are three other fall 2014 books in this series. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these U.S. Special Forces titles: FBI Hostage Rescue, Green Berets, and Navy Seals.
