What is H. Norman Schwarzkopf (Great Military Leaders of the 20th Century) about?

<p>reviews The Life And Battles Of General Stormin' Norman Schwarzkopf, Who Commanded American Troops In The Persian Gulf War Of 1991.</p> <h3>library Journal</h3> <p>gr 6-9-these Admiring Biographies Provide Information About Both The Personal Lives And Military Careers Of Their Respective Subjects. Schwarzkopf Is The Better Of The Two Titles, With A Good Discussion Of How The General's Upbringing Shaped His Strong Character And How His Experiences In Vietnam Influenced His Theories Of Military Organization And Battle Conduct. On The Other Hand, Macarthur Suffers From Several Flaws That Limit Its Effectiveness. Rice Is Overly Admiring Of The General's Leadership And Character (great Moments In Time Invariably Spawn Great Leaders Macarthur Was Undeniably The Right Man In The Right Place At The Right Time) And He Glosses Over His Subject's Lifelong Pattern Of Resisting Orders, Self-aggrandizement, And Political Posturing. The Author Includes Considerable Coverage Of Macarthur's Experiences In The Two World Wars, But Devotes Only A Few Pages To His Power Struggle With Truman During The Korean Conflict. Further, Much Of The Vocabulary Is Far Too Advanced For A Middle School Audience.
