On Wings of Eagles
Trivet-The-Fool avatar reviewed on + 20 more book reviews


(from back cover)
THE TEAM
The Eagles, a group of volunteers from the executive ranks of a great American corporation, hand-picked and trained by a retired Green Beret officer.

The MISSION
To penetrate a heavily guarded prison fortress in Iran and free the Americans imprisoned there.

THE ODDS
If you had to calculate the, you didn't go.

The story on these pages would have been incredibly exciting had it been fiction. but it is more than that-it is fact. It's a story that only Ken Follett, today's master of action and suspense, could do justice to.
