    @Nach: Many thanks. I actually read no.2 after seeing the film (film is good but book has so much more). 4 I highly recommend if you like the subject, though I've read other books on this topic I find that the maps are the area that often let them down, being either too few or not enough detail.

    @Hoef: you know this thread is non-fiction right?
