East Africa Editorial Review
**** "90 Minutes at Entebbe" offers a vivid and gripping recount of the 1976 hijacking of an Air France plane and the subsequent rescue operation by Israeli commandos. Through a mix of first-person accounts and strategic insights, the book sheds light on the complexities and tensions surrounding the hijacking, highlighting the precarious situation faced by hostages and their rescuers alike. While it presents a narrative centered on the heroic rescue mission, the book also delves into the political landscape of the time, providing an interesting backdrop that resonates with contemporary discussions on terrorism and international politics. Readers have appreciated the well-researched perspective from the Israeli side, though some felt the narrative occasionally became convoluted, particularly due to the multitude of characters involved. A common suggestion is to include a character list and more background historical context to aid understanding. Despite these minor criticisms, many find the account compelling, detailing the strategic intricacies of the operation and showcasing the audacity of the Israeli forces involved. The author’s emphasis on the heroism of the mission resonated strongly with readers; however, some critiques arose regarding the balance between operational details and broader historical context. Overall, the book serves as an absorbing exploration of a pivotal moment in aviation history and terrorism, making it a must-read for history enthusiasts and those interested in military strategy. **
