March Or Die is a highly readable, in-depth history of the world's best known---if not always best understood---elite fighting force.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hard to read, April 2, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I am a bit disappointed in this writers ability to weave the facts into an interesting story, I find it hard to care much about what is going on. Plus his insistence on using the french word without an explanation of its meaning is distracting. I have no doubt that the story of the Legion is a fascinating one something this book is unable to show.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gripping and well researched, December 15, 2008
This review is from: March or Die: A New History of the French Foreign Legion (Hardcover)
This was an enjoyable read. Well-researched and a good balance of telling a good story without over-dramatizing it.
