About this title

Synopsis:

Rates and provides plot summaries and credits for movies about war, soldiers, and spies

From Library Journal:

What promises to be the definitive reference work on a popular genre falls well short of the mark. The author provides an introduction to his subject, followed by detailed entries to over 450 films, including year of release, director, major stars, plot description, and a rating system which awards four stars for the best films. Garland is certainly thorough; everything from All Quiet on the Western Front to Zulu is here, as well as a couple of ringers like Alice's Restaurant. The descriptions, however, aside from an occasional discussion of specific armaments, don't offer much new. And Garland misses an opportunity to be timely: There is no attempt to provide videocassette availability on the entries. Thomas Wiener, formerly with "American Film," Washington, D.C.

Shipping Terms:

SHIPPING CHARGES: Please note that about 13.5% of the shipping and handling charge is retained by AbeBooks as a fee levied against the bookseller and not passed along for purchasing postage and packaging supplies. That is much of the reason why the shipping charge is significantly higher than actual postage costs. This is especially true for international shipping where international postal costs are high to begin with. Occasionally (such as when ordering a set of books) it will be necessary for us to ask domestic buyers for some additional shipping funds. In this case, after confirming your book(s) is available, we will ask AbeBooks to request appropriate additional shipping charges. In practice, this is a rare occurrence on domestic orders. See below for international shipping. PACKING: All books will be carefully packed to insure safe arrival. We use either quality shipping boxes or other shipping containers augmented by bubble, paper cushioning, or cardboard chipboard to insure safe delivery in the same condition as book was sent. INTERNATIONAL ORDERS: Our default shipping cost is for shipping in a flat rate global priority envelope, small box, or flat rate bag. If your book is too large or too expensive to ship in these containers we will be asking AbeBooks to request adequate additional funds so we can ship your book safely and securely. All international shipments will be listed as books-merchandise on customs forms with value as actual invoice cost. No exceptions. If you have any concerns, please contact us via e mail prior to placing an order for an accurate shipping quotation.
