Title: Very little overt argument
Product review: Smith is a soldier, and as such, might have been better off writing reports and op orders than an overarching book of this nature. For someone whose experiences would, I presume, give him a lot to say, he has a lot of trouble saying it in this book. There really is no real strong thesis and he makes few overt arguments in favor of hi spoint. The book rambles, moves from vignette to vignette, and never gets to the point. Bottom line--avoid.
