I recently read the book The Good Soldiers by David Finkel.In the book a US Army Ranger battalion led by a Colonel Kuzlarich takes part in the last ditch effort in winning the war in Iraq. The Operation was called "The Surge".Along the one year of hell the Rangers talk about their experience and how they are doing after the war. In my opinion, this is one of the best written and REAL books of the modern conflict. I liked how the author put details into what happened over seas and what happened when they got home.I would recommend this book to someone who wants to know more about the war in Iraq, before I picked this book up I didn't know a whole lot about the war other than what I've picked up from video games, but now I get how insane and saddening the war really is. It's a great read for someone who is looking for something different about war.
I rate this book a 10/10.
This appears to be very intense and interesting. I will have to start reading non-fiction books like this soon.
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds interesting. I like how it's based on true events and is during modern time.
