Title: I was surprised
Product review: On a recommendation I purchased "Raid on the Sun". I like politics but am not inclined toward military histories.I could not put the book down. The author handles all the political and diplomatic issues and contexts with ease and authority. His handling of the personalities of the pilots involved made them each interesting, not the least the "nicest guy", Ilan Ramon, who died in the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster years later.I was surprised how much I enjoyed the recounting of the air raid itself. The author made this this military affair an exciting and suspenseful story, and all the technological issues were easy to understand while being comprehensive at the same time.
