4-6Terrorist Dossiers series.
These four volumes examine counterterrorism groups in the United States and abroad and recount specific raids and rescues in the Mideast, Great Britain, and Africa. The historical focus is valuable (almost all the material concerns pre-9/11 acts of terrorism), but the dry prose and dull black-and-white photos make the books less engaging than they should be. Reading list, timeline, websites. Bib., ind. Review covers these Terrorist Dossiers titles: Against All Odds, Global Counterstrike, Targeting Terror, and U.S. Counterstrike.
