Here's a link of a excerpt from it. Canjunscot had referenced it also in another thread. I got my copy this week.

I also appreciate the sacrifice any soldier makes. Unless it goes directly against what they are taught as soldier they have to follow orders. But surely we are remembering it as a tragedy, it was a stupid war fought over pride and an unwillingness to change. One could say that some wars are necessary, but no one in their right mind would say that wars are good. It's about time people realize we are in this world together and not against each other. We have enough problems as it is.
That being said I history shouldn't be forgotten, there are many important things we can learn from history. I just think a lot of the hatred and bitterness should be avoided at all costs.
