Academic requirements have caused me to put this one on hold. It is a terrific read from all angles, but I could not give this complex story the attention it truly deserves. I look forward to picking it back up again, once academic pressure diminishes.

Have not made much headway; class requirements took priority. So far, I've been impressed with Mr. Stephenson's combining of history and science in the Age of Enlightenment.

Getting into the last two years of the war. Very meaty, but also very readable.

Reading this one for class. Very meaty, well-researched look of the Great War.

Almost finished reading this book for a military history class. It is an updated classic that chronicles the growth and maturity of the American military system, up to the present. I like the authors' candid treatment of military policy issues. The chapters on the Vietnam War seemed more strident, personal than the previous ones. The authors are not fans of General Westmoreland or President Johnson.

Reading this book for a class. The author refutes the fashionable arguement that the Allies won World War II through the weight of materiel.

Interesting look at the US Army's painful transition from a "big war"doctrine to one that supports fighting in low intensity conflicts.

Another book for class; British take on naval strategy from 1911. About 80% done.

About 80% done. Interesting take on maritime history and strategy. Loved reading about the Anglo-Dutch wars at sea.

Finished Book Seven. One more to go.

An improvement on the first book - which was very good for the first in the series. Highly enjoyable. Looking forward to #3.

Reading this on "hold" while I read "The Panther" by Nelson DeMille. For some reason Goodreads will not let me add this book.
