Books that should be read.

[Gibbs505]

Just my opinion, of course!

William L. Shirer. "The Collapse of The Thired Republic."

About Fance and her politics from 1871 to 1940. And why we have the world we have to day. Yep, blame it on the french!

FM Erich Von Manstein. "Lost Victories."

His story told in his own word's. You have to read with a bit of caution, but still a fascinating read by one of the wars greatest generals.

Carl Von Clausewitz. "On War."

The book you have to read if you are a serious student of war history.

Thucydides. "History of the Peloponnesian War."

The very first of the serious writers of history. And it is a good read! No I did not read it in the origional greek!

F.W. Winterbotham. "The Ultra Secret."

The best kept secret of the Second World War! And it was amazing that the germans never tumbled to it!

Barbara W. Tuchman. "The Zimmermann Telegram."

Why and how the USA entered the Great War.

Robert K. Massie. "Dreadnought. Britian, Germany, and The Coming of the Great War."

This is a gripping look at the relations between Germany and great Britian and how the latter was driven into the arms of France by the former.


Well, that is it for now!
