That said, I think this book is a decent introduction to the world of private military contractors. In hindsight, Scahill does diverge greatly from the issue at hand: Blackwater.... more info

from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
Tom Ricks' "Fiasco" is a superb history of the first three years of U.S. military engagement in Iraq, chronicling in detail the years 2003-2006. Though the events in the book seem a little dated at this point, reading about them now in the Spring of 2008, one can see how mistakes made early on... more info

from Holt Paperbacks
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:
If you are a fan of Noam Chomsky and familiar with his views, ideas and past writings, then there is nothing new to be found in this book. While the title provides a background theme, it's barely connected in a cohesive way to its content. But then again, that's most of Chomsky's books.

Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
I normally do not read "war" books. When I saw this book I had to get it -- after a very good Marine friend told me a little about his tours in this war. I wanted to learn more since he never thought he did anything out of the ordinay - he was only doing his job as a Marine.
I like how this... more info
