 A Starting Point May 22, 2008
Pepe N. Johnson (Dallas, Texas, USA)
This well-written and short book was crafted to serve as a starting point for those military leaders who wish to further refine their leadership skills. The author introduces a number of leadership concepts and provides a lot of thought-provoking insight, based in his own experience and those of other military leaders he interviewed. I read some chapters, and went back and re-read them to make sure I had gleaned everything I could from his writing. Throughout the text and at the end of each chapter, he lists several books that you may want to check out for further study.
 Very very good May 20, 2007
T. Warner (USA)
Shows what a military officer needs to read and how to apply it to get an inner foundation for effective leadership. This is certainly not just a bibliography listing of books!
I was happy to see that I had already read a number of the suggested books but there was plenty of new material to go find.

 The author didn't write what he thought he wrote. July 31, 2006

The author, having spent his military life reading about leadership, tries to write a book about leadership. What he ended up writing was a book about reading about leadership, and given his own limited writing ability, even his writing recommendations can't be trusted. I'm going to go read some Heinlein and see if I can't get better recommendations than this.
ESSENTIAL December 14, 2004

By all means this text is essential to your quest to become a leader. Although slotted for an outlook more akin to officers; I would highly recommend this book to enlisted members as well. As an NCO myself this book was incredibly insightful and has definitely furthered my career as a member of the military. If only more officers would read this book the Arms would be a much better, and effective, entity.
