Review title: The author has an ax to grind.
Product review: I do not recommend this book for anybody who wants an unbiased account of history (especially of the Vietnam War). In the chapter on the Vietnam War the author displays incredible bias. His assessment relies on ad hominem attacks on the principles (only on the U.S. side though). He conveniently omits facts about Ho Chi Minh and the North Vietnamese. For all practical purposes, the author tells bald faced lies. I do not recommend this book to anybody who is interested in an historical account of war. All you will get is a plateful of this man's blatant bias, which is useless to the student.
