Stupid wars

The ridiculous and reckless conflicts chronicled in Stupid Wars include the misguided Fourth Crusade, the US's rash invasion of Russia, Britain's baffling Falkland Islands War, Hitler's ill-fated Beer Hall Putsch, several incredibly pathetic South American conflicts, the Bay of Pigs fiasco, and much more. If you're a would-be dictator, a royal lover, or a history buff, you'll love these texts, which expose the worst decisions ever made by history's most famous politicians and warmongers. A humorous and informative account.
