This review is from: Man of war (Hardcover)

The writing style tends to be Old School but it's readable enough. This is a military book written by an ex military man. It focuses on a British man who navigates his way through the military hierarchy, dealing with conflict after conflict, especially from within. The big strengths of this novel are focused upon logistics and an insider's view of how things went during peace time before WWII and then the early war years of WWII. I'd only recommend it for such sorts. WHEN READ: June to August; MY GRADE: B minus.
