Jere Van Dyk was on the wrong side of the border. He and three Afghan guides had crossed into the tribal areas of Pakistan, where no Westerner had ventured for years, hoping to reach the home of a local chieftain by nightfall. But then a dozen armed men in black turbans appeared over the crest of a hill.
Captive is Van Dyk's searing account of his forty-five days in a Taliban prison, and it is gripping and terrifying in the tradition of the best prison literature. The main action takes place in a single room, cut off from the outside world, where Van Dyk feels he can trust nobody--not his jailers, not his guides (who he fears may have betrayed him), and certainly not the charismatic Taliban leader whose fleeting appearances carry the hope of redemption as well as the prospect of immediate, violent death. Van Dyk went to the tribal areas to investigate the challenges facing America there. His story is of a deeper, more personal challenge, an unforgettable tale of human endurance.Binding Type: Paperback

Great quality tux for the price
Color: White, Size: XX-Large, Color: White, Size: XX-Large
I was pleasantly surprised with the quality and fit right out of the package. The cloth has a subtle pattern that gives it an upscale look without being flashy, and overall it feels far nicer than I expected at this price.
Jacket:
The jacket has a good weight and thickness, so it feels solid and well-made. Sleeve length was perfect right out of the box, which almost never happens for me. The only fit issue was a bit of snugness in the chest and underarm area, but I have broad shoulders and a larger chest, so that’s not unusual. My dress shirt sleeve length is 36.5", so I went with an XXL instead of my usual XL to make sure the sleeves were long enough. That was the right call, because it’s always easier for a tailor to size something down than to try and make something too small work. Aside from a quick tweak in the chest, this could easily be worn straight out of the package.
Pants:
The pants are noticeably thinner than the jacket and you can kind of see through them, so you’ll want to be mindful when choosing undergarments. That said, the lighter fabric is actually a plus for summer outdoor events or warm indoor venues since it will help keep you cool and comfortable. The flexible waistband made them very comfortable, and the fit in both the waist and length was spot on. For reference, I usually wear 38x32 dress pants and these matched perfectly.
Overall:
The quality is excellent for the cost. Even with a minor tailoring bill, my total cost to own this tux will still be less than renting one for a single event. I couldn’t be happier with the purchase and wouldn’t hesitate to pick up another.
