Book Reviews of Boot
Book Review: Boot
Summary: 4 Stars
My son and I read this book shortly before my son went to boot camp. The book practically followed what he went through exactly on a day to day basis possibly spoiling the whole experience and surprise factor of boot camp. Very detailed.Book Review: Bravo Zulu
Summary: 5 Stars
Forget the words of the other reviewers. This book is outstanding and should be prescribed reading for any young person about to enter the Marine Corps. Yes some of the information is out of date, but the way recruits are trained will never change and this book is a perfect, true to life journal of Marine Corps boot camp.Book Review: Disappointed
Summary: 3 Stars
I thought that this book follows some recruits thru boot camp.When I read this book they mention some recruits and their problems going thru boot camp.This book however presented in considerable detail the process of becoming a Marine and associated information about such things as the process to become a drill instructor. As a civilian, this was sometimes a little too much detail. Overall , I still would recommend this book if you are a military buff or just interested in the Marines.Book Review: Excellence!
Summary: 5 Stars
Personally, I love this book! It may be a bit factual for some readers, but for "nitty-gritty detail" persons like myself it is a wonderful read. Has a lot of inside info on the day-to-day routine of bootcamp. Also has alot of history and background information about Parris Island and the Corps. I think it has helped prepare me for the rigors of basic training.Book Review: Excellent Book
Summary: 4 Stars
I am currently in the Marine Corps. This book gives a good image of the Corps in the early 80's, but Making the Corps gives a better modern look at Marine Corps boot camp.
