The "is this book a good read?" thread

Just an idea to share our reading experiences and maybe help prevent fellow members from impulsively buying a book that isn't that great. For example, Kyt's India abysmal India reprint in a following thread.

Here's what I'm umming and ahing about!

Amazon.com: America's Fighting Admirals: Winning the War at Sea in World War II: Books: William Tuohy,Steve Gansen

Looks good to me. Anyone read it?

I bought it anyway! It arrived in the mail last week and is pretty impressive of the little bits I've flicked through. We'll see...
