kayote reviewed The greatest war stories never told by Rick Beyer
Review of 'The greatest war stories never told' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
A wide collection of stories from the Spartans the Gulf War. Each is just a couple pages per story with extra quotes and illustratoins, and yet he manages to tell them effectively. I preferred his Greatest Stories Never Told, but that's a topic prefence. I read this one with my teenager (who like military history) and he was excited when he knew the stories--and even more excited when he didn't. Fortunately, he didn't know most of them, so well chosen and well presented. I very much enjoyed the notes before the sources, especially "The trick isn't finding the stories. It's verifying them."
