I'm about halfway through this book (made it to the other side of the picture section)
It's actually not as awful as I thought it was going to be. The author is a little hard to take because it's painfully obvious he has that deeply ingrained subconscious belief that Americans deserve to run the world with Britain and Israel's help and everyone else should just deal with it.
However, there's a good level of detail about incidents and events that most writers never get into, most authors are like "so that happened" whereas this guy actually goes into what led up to it and why and how it happened not just "it happened." Maybe he was some kind of political analyst dude. Caveat, I caught a few minor factual errors around events I'm super-familiar with, so that makes me unsure how accurate he is in the things I'm less familiar with, so I'm reading with caution.
Another funny thing is he keeps accidentally making Gaddafi sound even more based than I thought he was. 😅
