Title: Makes good fire starter material on a cold night
Review: I really liked "An Army at Dawn" and thought this would be similar but I was WRONG. Of course, buying it for $.01 used should have given me a clue but "An Army at Dawn" was so good. I really wish that the author had focused on the soliders, their lives, and their experiences since he was right there with them instead of spending 2-3 pages every chapter discussing how the Bush administration lied. Lies or no lies the soliders are in Iraq doing a job we sent them to do and theirs is a compelling story to be told but the author decided to give us his story where these soldiers are nothing more than game pieces in a grand political shell game both his and the administration's. It is amazing to me how the author spent this time with these young man in extremely stressful situations and all he saw was some grand political scheme. I wasted my time so you don't have to waste yours because even at $.01 used, it's not worth it.
Is the review positive or negative?
