A good and interesting take on the events leading up to, during and the fallout from Wounded Knee. A well balanced, researched and thought out book.
The history of the building of Mt. Rushmore. Great look at the making of a tourist destination in the middle of nowhere.

"This beautifully illustrated and sensitively designed volume returns to now-long-abandoned U.S. Army Air Force bases in England, melding photographs from World War II with recent views of overgrown runways, rusting Nissen huts, and crumbling, ghostly control towers".--American History Illustrated. 250 illustrations, 100 in color.
U.S. bomber bases in England, BEFORE , and then 70 years later. Unreal written biographical style accounts of daylight raids, enemy fighters, and flak bursts.
