Stupid Wars – Book ReviewGerald D. Swick | May 18, 2008 | 2 comments | Print | E-mail What quibbles I have about the content of Stupid Wars are minor; the authors pulled off their humor and history balancing act effectively. My biggest complaints concern the cheap paper and mediocre cover used by the publisher, Collins, which make the book look like a low-budget, self-publishing effort instead of something from an imprint of HarperCollins, and that isn’t fair to what these authors have accomplished. Cosmetics aside, this is a fun and informative read, a great gift for Father’s Day. I give it four stars for content, one-and-a-half for production values.

Swick, the senior online editor for ArmchairGeneral.com and HistoryNet.com, is known for frequently incorporating witticisms and wordplay into his own historical writings. Pages: 1 2

I love the book! My dad wrote it, Michael Prince! They might make another book about something else stupid.
