Title: Nightingale's Song Disappointing
Review: I purchased this book with the hope of getting some insights into the vietnam era and specifically the Iran-Contra affair. The early portions of the book do present a view of the elite Naval Academy graduates in the context of academy life, career advancement and the Vietnam War. However, as time advances to the Reagan Presidency and Iran Contra, it becomes painfully obvious that the author is phobically predjudiced against Ronald Reagan and Oliver North. So much so that it is impossible to reliably understand the dynamics of the events of that time. What started out as well written and promising ended up as a big disappointment. However, those who have an idealogical hatred of Ronald Reagan and Oliver North will probably enjoy the book. Truth seekers will be disappointed.
