Has anyone read Obama's Wars by Woodward?
Say what you will about Woodward, I thought he was even handed with his Bush books especially as he became progressively disalusioned with the Bush admin and the wars. But I still don't trust him and I don't really want to waste time and money on a bash Obama screed. Enough of that everywhere else.

Anyway, has anyone read it? What did you think?

1. He's off to a bad start with that title
I won't be supporting him financially this time around.

2. That's what libraries are for.
I can't afford to buy any books anyways.

3. I thought Woodward was reasonably accurate in previous books.
If you filter out the politics, his new book should be a good read. The same goes for any other writer.
