The astonishing, never before told story of the greatest rescue mission of World War II--when the OSS set out to recover more than 500 airmen trapped behind enemy lines in Yugoslavia...During a bombing campaign over Romanian oil fields, hundreds of American airmen were shot down in Nazi-occupied Yugoslavia. Local Serbian farmers and peasants risked their own lives to give refuge to the soldiers while they waited for rescue, and in 1944, Operation Halyard was born. The risks were incredible. The starving Americans in Yugoslavia had to construct a landing strip large enough for C-47 cargo planes--without tools, without alerting the Germans, and without endangering the villagers. And the cargo planes had to make it through enemy airspace and back--without getting shot down themselves. Classified for over half a century for political reasons, the full account of this unforgettable story of loyalty, self-sacrifice, and bravery is now being told for the first time ever. The Forgotten 500 is the gripping, behind-the-scenes look at the greatest escape of World War II. "Amazing and] riveting."--James Bradley, New York Times bestselling author of Flags of Our Fathers

Super cute
The shelf is cute, and super easy to set-up.
Be careful with the screws, I stripped the magnet screw/hole a little bit. Street that I was a little weary on over-tightening the four corners of each shelf.
Make sure you use the wall straps bc it will be a little wobbly.

Great shelf
Color: Greige, Size: 6 Tier(10.7 x 15 x 65.3 Inches), Color: Greige, Size: 6 Tier(10.7 x 15 x 65.3 Inches)
Very impressed with this! It was very easy for me to put together without any help. Very sturdy pieces and seems well made. Really can’t beat the quality for the price! The glass door on the bottom really dresses up this shelf. I will probably buy more of these for other rooms in my house.

Elegant shelf, easy assembly!
Color: White, Size: 4 Tier(10.7 x 15 x 40.8 Inches), Color: White, Size: 4 Tier(10.7 x 15 x 40.8 Inches)
I almost returned this because I didn’t think I could put it together, but the step by step picture instructions were easy to follow, and I assembled this in about 50 minutes, taking my time and also wiping down each wood piece so it would be ready to go once finished. This came packed very well and no parts were missing or messed up. It’s very elegant looking for being inexpensive and just what I needed budget wise and style wise. It is sturdy and beautiful and I like it very much and am glad I kept it, it is worth it!

Very easy to put together. Lightweight, great for what I was looking for. Holds a lot of books and perfect for me. I didn't want a heavy clunky bookcase.
