Drawing on the authors military service and deployments abroad into war zones, the book offers short stories with a twist of questioning what you you do in a similar scenario. This is to aid in decision making and also makes you ponder some of the moral questions in life and war.
An interesting book that will appeal to many but especially in an educational setting.

In short the book is a fine addition to any enthusiast or modellers bookcase, even more so as these vehicles seem to fill our screens on the nightly news in these troubling times.

We stay in the Far East for A.J Barker's Fortune Favours the Brave: The Battles of the Hook Korea, 1952-1953 (Pen & Sword). Most of the books emerging from the Korean War concern the American side of things, some of them conveniently overlooking the other nations that fought there. Barker examines two British regiments that performed extraordinary deeds along a ridge that became known as the 'Bloody Hook': The Black Watch in November 1952, and the Duke of Wellington's regiment in May 1953. Both regiments stood their ground against relentless Chinese human-wave attacks, sustaining heavy casualties in the process. If you can't wargame that, you're not trying: this is classic attack vs defence and is again ideal for solo or cooperative games.
