The last true story ill ever tell-John Crawford

Ive been obsessed with books on the Iraq war lately, ive read almost every one out there, these were some of the best.
Wow, awesome response to this…
I’m really interested in the Iraq war books so I’ll definetely give those a shout. Those books dealing with human nature sound very interesting as well, so I’ll be sure to check them out.Thanks Malonetd for posting that Time list, that’s alot of reading material. Overall a lot of stuff here to hold me over for a while.
Keep the ideas coming…

The Last True Story I’ll Ever Tell, was absolutly great as was Generation Kill, actually Generation Kill is about Captain Ficks unit during the Iraq invasion.

Yeah, I noticed some of the same stories repeated in both books and had to grab one off my bookshelf to confirm. I also agree that The Last True Story was probably the cream of the crop. I literally read it in about 2 nights. Any other suggestions?
By far the best book I ever read was, “My Jihad”
If you like combat sports, read “A Fighter’s Heart” by Sam Sheridan. I’d also recommend “No Holds Barred” which gives a detailed history of the UFC and mixed martial arts.
