War Elephants - Book ReviewRichard N Story | June 10, 2006 | 0 comments | Print | E-mail John Kistler, the author, got his mahout certification while assisting consultants for the film Alexander. Using his mahout training, John Kistler brings a depth and understanding to the role of elephants in warfare. War Elephants is flawlessly written and researched. While the illustrations are a bit sparse this is not surprising given the subject matter. While this would not be a book I would have normally picked up; I am very pleased I was given a chance to review a copyh. With a list price of $44.95 the book is not cheap, but it is worth every penny. If you are interested in reading about ancient warfare, or the role of elephants in war, then this book is highly recommended. Pages: 1 2Help Armchair General by bookmarking to
