Negative Positive
Title: Underwhelming
Review: Not on par with many of his past efforts. Book is mostly driven by Ambrose's adulation of former Presidential candidate George McGovern. Very little technical detail to rival other works such as "D Day." The continuity is poor and reads more like a flight log(the reviewer states from experence,as a former combat pilot.) He praises McGovern for his efforts as a B-24 pilot flying dangerous missions over very dangerous places. Ambrose, very cavalierly,excuses his protest of American men doing the same thing, with the same sense of duty, over the skies of Vietnam. He offers no explanation for this duplicity.
Is the review positive or negative?
