Battle Ready

Marine general Tony Zinni was known as the "Warrior Diplomat" during his nearly forty years of service. His credentials as a soldier were impeccable, and as a peacemaker he made just as great a mark. In Battle Ready, he is candid, thoughtful, and blunt about the good and bad he has seen and continues to see. It is an eye-opening book - a front-row seat to a man, an institution, and a way of both war and of peace that together make this an instant classic of military history.
