The two novels, which were read, demonstrated exemplary details of the ISU topics from which we were supposed to choose. The Hunt for Red October, by Tom Clancey, and Fatal Terrain, by Dale Brown were the two books being read and analyzed. These two novels are very similar in theme.

The ambition aspects in both of the books

The Crucible, written by Arthur Miller in 1953, is about the Salem witch trials and is an allegory to the practicing of McCarthyism during the Second Red Scare

Spies in media have always had this allure to the common man. Being able to traverse the world while smoking cigars and toppling dictators has and will always be a fantasy for many.

In the United States If one would like to hunt they must first look up their state laws because the hunter must take part in a hunter safety course. I can remember when I reach the young age of eleven I myself attended such a class. This class taught the basics of hunting laws and safety.
