About the Author
Tom Clancy is the author of eleven novels, most recently The Bear and the Dragon, and the Commanders books Into the Storm and Every Man a Tiger. He is also the author of the paperback nonfiction series begun with Submarine, and the cocreator of the Op-Center, Power Plays, and Net Force series.
General Carl Stiner (ret.) was commander in chief of SOCOM from 1990 to 1993, and previously spent a large part of his career as the commander of many of the nation's preeminent contingency strike forces, such as the XVIII Airborne Corps, the 82nd Airborne Division, and the Joint Special Operations Command. Among missions with which he was involved were the Achille Lauro hostage rescue, the Panama invasion, and operations during Desert Storm.

Shadow Warriors
Seller: World of Books (was SecondSale), Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardback. Condition: Fair. 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.
