In Reply to: Williams also authored 'Lincoln and His Generals' which is another great read...IMO. posted by Tony D. on October 19, 2011 at 21:36:55:
"The Moro War"A nice tome about our battle against a Moslem insurgency in the Phillipines from 1902-1913. Well written but lacks the drama of the best historical novels. It does, however, obliterate some of the myths surrounding how Captain Pershing dealt with the Moslems. Obviously the story, if not exactly the tactics used, are relevant today.
