It Doesn’t Take a Hero. The autobiography of General H. Norman Schwarzkopf. cw Peter Petre. 1992. ISBN 9780307764997. Partially a book on Middle East history , military strategy , geopolitics and a view into the mind of a singular leader. It is compelling stuff to see how events in the authors life shaped him toward becoming the Commander in Chief of Desert Storm. His personal details of home are often missing from sanitized autobiographies. This book rings true. It is concise and too the point. It also points to the ongoing ability of the US forces to get a job done when asked. Good book for a cross country flight as it moves right along.
