    MISSION IMPOSSIBLE 1800 STYLE

    The CD shows that Zacks knows his subject. The adventures of William Eaton and America's first venture into covert ops is very impressive. It also shows how the boby politic was working then as it has in all ages since. In particular it shows how political figures (and others of prominence) can bask in the glory of success and are still comfortable with denying complicity in failure. It details the richness of the workings of diplomacy as well as the bitter-sweet results of betrayal by agents of the diplomatic process.

    In the end, it shows how loyalty and determination by a few good men ( even with all their human qualities - both good and bad )can succeed in their precieved task through preserverence and steadfast dedication.

    The pirate coast is not exactly a pirate book, but a good read none-the-less

    This book takes place during the time when the United States was a new country, before the civil war. The northern coast of Africa had many kingdoms ruled by tyrants who demanded ransoms and attacked ships that was not part of a nation that had a treaty with there government. The USS Philadelphia tries to blockade Tripoli. It fails and is captured. The crew are treated as slaves. The "King" of Tripoli demands ransom. The United States' first secret agent mission takes place when the US sends a crew to burn the stolen ship. Later a man goes looking for the rightful ruler of Tripoli buys an army and sets across the desert.

    For me it took a while to read. This book has the parts where you just can't stop reading, and the parts where the book gets a bit boring. I would recommend this to someone who enjoys US history. This book is not exactly a pirate book, quite a lot of the story takes place on land.

    Business as usual in politics and foreigh policy.

    I bought this as an audio book, mistakenly believing that it was a novel. With a long drive ahead, I listened anyway, expecting a dry history of pirates. Instead, I was delightfully surprised by a witty, amusing and well researched tale of political intrigue, naval warfare and foreign relations. The authors' style is contemporary, vivid and sometimes extremely funny. From the almost comic events which lead to the young United States' conflict with Barbary pirates, the story darkens into a tale of political agendas and power struggles between Federalists and Republicans which is eerily similar to events occurring today. Overall, the book is highly entertaining as well as informative about a piece of history not often examined.
