Good Book - Lots of useful information
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book was required reading for a class I took on the Gulf War. It has a lot of good information written in an easy to understand format. It begins with a brief history of the U.S. military since Vietnam and explains the evolution in training, equipment, and doctrine since Vietnam. The book also keeps you entertained with accounts of different battles at the begining of each chapter. This is a good book for those interested in getting a history of the Gulf War from the perspective of the US Army.
Very informative

Scales' book holds very true to it's title: The U.S. Army in the Gulf War. The contributions of other services are analyzed (and criticized) only in relation to their support of the US Army. I think anyone studying the Gulf War should read this book, but should also supplement it with other works.
