Né à Baltimore en 1947, Tom Clancy est le spécialiste des romans d'espionnage contemporains. Après ses études, il débute sa carrière en devenant courtier en assurance. Pourtant, sa passion pour l'armée sera plus forte et il décide, quelques temps plus tard, d'intégrer l'US Army. Pourtant, à cause de ses problèmes de vue qui briseront ses rêves, il se rabattra, pour notre plus grand plaisir, sur l'écriture. Son premier roman Octobre rouge sur l'histoire vraie de l'équipage russe du Storojevoï rencontre un succès phénoménal. De par son impressionnante documentation, il sera félicité par le président Ronald Reagan qui qualifiera son livre de "parfait". S'ensuit un grand nombre d'histoire d'espionnage, toutes plus passionnantes les unes que les autres. Parmi celles-ci, notre communauté vous conseille particulièrement Danger immédiat débutant sur l'assassinat du directeur du FBI et de l'ambassadeur américain. Si vous vous intéressez au monde militaire, vous allez être comblé. Dans notre rayon thriller, vous trouvez le livre qui va vous happer et vous emporter dans des intrigues savoureuses et mystérieuses. Remède mortel d'Harlen Coben, Les années perdues de Mary Higgins Clark, Fantôme de Jo Nesbo... voici un échantillon d'œuvres très appréciées de notre communauté de libraires et lecteurs.

Résumé
An unconventional war requires unconventional men-the Special Forces. Green Berets . Navy SEALS . Rangers .Air Force Special Operations . PsyOps . Civil Affairs .and other special-mission units The first two Commanders books, Every Man a Tiger and Into the Storm, provided masterly blends of history, biography, you-are-there narrative, insight into the practice of leadership, and plain old-fashioned storytelling.
Shadow Warriors is all of that and more, a book of uncommon timeliness, for, in the words of Lieutenant General Bill Yarborough, "there are itches that only Special Forces can scratch." Now, Carl Stiner-the second commander of SOCOM, the U. S. Special Operations Command-and Tom Clancy trace the transformation of the Special Forces from the small core of outsiders of the 1950s, through the cauldron of Vietnam, to the rebirth of the SF in the late 1980s and 1990s, and on into the new century as the bearer of the largest, most mixed, and most complex set of missions in the U.
S. military. These are the first-hand accounts of soldiers fighting outside the lines: counterterrorism, raids, hostage rescues, reconnaissance, counterinsurgency, and psychological operations-from Vietnam and Laos to Lebanon to Panama, to Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Iraq, to the new wars of today.
