I recently finished this book, and found it convincing and compelling. It wasn't quite as enjoyable a read as Red Storm Rising, but it was still very good. My only complaints were that things worked out a bit too easily for the Western side, Palmer says nothing about social or long-term political effeccts of the war, and that the war is too short(only ten weeks, whereas in real life I think such a war would probably have lasted a year to two years). Has anyone else read it? |
