Review title: Disappointing book
Product review: Mr Keegan is one of the best military historians of our time but unfortunately he seems to run out of steam with each passing year. "The Iraq War" is not a book about military history but a collection of political and diplomatic analysis which was done rather in haste in order to get published. The author devotes less than 80 pages to the actual military operations and the description of units, troop movements, logistics and leadership decisions are poor to say the least. It is a pity to see a renowned military historian to treat a modern campaign like OIF in such a general and boring manner. I'm eagerly waiting for his next real hit which will be equivalent to "The Face of Battle". As for OIF, you should better read Walter Boyne's or Williamson Murray's books, or even better the recently published memoirs of General Tommy Franks who presents a real professional view of both OEF and OIF.
