Outstanding book for anyone who loves military history. Morris does an excellent job re-creating the battle and action sequences involved in this critical battle of the Gulf War. There is great detail showing how the battle was fought, both from the tactical and strategic level. Morris plants himself firmly in the middle, showing both the positive and negative aspects of our military operations.
