Michael S. (Czarmike) reviewed Military Misdemeanors: Corruption, incompetence, lust and downright stupidity (General Military) on + 10 more book reviews
Nice little book that covers military and political blunders from ancient times to present. It is a little uneven at times with some episodes getting only brief analysis. Most of the vignettes are only 3-5 pages in length, so you're not going to get a deep analysis here. As a student of history, I was aware of most of these stories, but about 25% were new to me. If you like history and don't want to get bogged down in academic treatment of events, you'll like this book. If you're looking for great insights--take a pass on this book.
