5.0 out of 5 stars
Great example of the process, August 14, 2011
This review is from: One Hundred Days (Hardcover)
Excellent read that discusses the process a leader goes through prior to committing blood and treasure to strategic aims.
IT is a deep read that looks into the thought process of a leader. Not a book for the historically shallow desiring blood guts of warfare. This read is truly a brain matter digest of the mental methods that Admiral Woodward went thru prior to operations in the Falklands!
Great read that gets deep into the complexity of problem solving.

The Big Picture, August 4, 2011
This review is from: One Hundred Days (Hardcover)
This book only describes the sea/air battles leading up to the landing on the Falklands. I thought Woodward spent too much time justifying his every decision. It was interesting the first few time he did this but then it became a diversion and kept me from visualizing the big picture. Also maps would have been useful to keep track of where the ships and planes were located at the start of each engagement.
