I don't stop reading a bad book. I still commit to finishing even crappy books. It usually takes a little longer to finish. |

Mar 24, 2025 21:13 Air Power’s Lost Cause: The American Air Wars of Vietnam by Brian Laslie. Know the guy, he’s my primary advisor for my master’s thesis, extremely knowledgeable expert on airpower and the command historian at the US Air Force Academy. And he’s also super nice. Just not a great writer. Also, the book is well-trodden ground, like most Vietnam topics, and I think its central argument is lazy and incoherent as presented. Had to read it for a class at The Citadel and did my best to skim it but even that gave me no joy. |
