Customer Reviews
Not bad - interesting at times
I read it soon after the Tiger's Way. In some places the book repeats what was in the previous one, but this is understood as there is some kind of overlap in what both books cover.
Unfortunately what I didn't like in the first one, haunts this one too. There are too many quotes (this is majority of the book - well chosen, but still it looks like a collage). The figures in the book sometimes are illegible - they are not always really illustrating the text. They are just there. 1/5 of the book at best are sources and other academic stuff, that (if you carry your book with you where ever you go) just add weight to it.
There are interesting topics - the whole history and the regional context is very well placed.
Recommended? Mainly for military freaks.
