Osama bin Laden -

Bill Loehflem does a good job following the life of the evil Osama bin Laden from his teenage years to the Fall of 2002. In a book less then 100 pages, Loehflem in his introduction tells how a 44 year old Saudi exile caugt the worlds attention by orchestrating the September 11, 2001 attacks. He follows with telling the reader about bin laden's childhood and his rich Saudi Arabia family. He addresses Osama's relationship with Islam, joining the Jihad and follows him to Afghanistan. Reading the book, I thought Bill Loehflem might tell us where Osama is hiding. He does tell us what others think happened to him. Bill does leave us with an unknown future of an evil man who started a war with the most powerful nation on earth.

Know your enemy

This book about Osama bin Laden, a modern day villain, is written in a simple easy to understand style. It covers the life of bin Laden from birth to present day in a factual non-biased manner. It is certainly worthy of being included in a study of current events on Intermediate/Highschool level in my opinion.
