Wonderful Book

I bought this for my 10 year old nephew who was doing a presentation on the Navajo Code Talkers. It turns out he is related to one of them, which made it even more cool. He used this book in his presentation and I am so happy I bought it for him!!!

Great book

Navajo Code Talkers is fascinating. About a group of Indians who we as American's owe a lot to.

Great book to read in these times

After traveling to Northern Arizona last summer, I wanted to learn more about the Navajo. I found this book which tied in with my interest of WWII. It was a fast read and very informative.

One of The best books I have ever read.

First of all, I am an 8th grade student at Houghton Middle School. I read this for a book report, and I found this book fascinating, interesting, and exciting. It talks about from their roots and their culture, all the way to their finest hour at Iwo Jima and Mount Suribachi. I reccomend this book to anyone who is interested in World War 2 and the Navajo Code Talkers.

History Comes Alive!

A fascinating true story about the Navajo people, World War II, and creating and breaking codes. This book is of the sort that really makes history come alive for readers. I thoroughly enjoyed it. My husband will shortly be purchasing several copies for use in his Jeopardy Reading Tournament that he holds each year for 4th and 5th graders in the school district he is a media specialist in.
