ReviewsLt. Gen. Bernard E. Trainor U.S.M.C. (Ret.)Stephanie Gutmann fires a fully charged broadside at feminist zealots and social engineers in The Kinder, Gentler Military. The book is bound to trigger a fierce counterattack., James Webbformer secretary of the Navy, author of Fields of Fire and The Emperor's GeneralRead this book. Stephanie Gutmann is an acute observer with an impish ability to poke fun at hypocrisy and farce that reminds one of Tom Wolfe at his best. The careerists may squirm, but thousands of active-duty military -- including, I predict, many women -- will be thanking her for saying what needed very much to be said., Capt. Jalesia M. Griffin (Res.)Stephanie Gutmann's book is a breath of fresh air in a military where political correctness has unfortunately taken a front seat. I am relieved that a woman has the courage to hold our female soldiers to a higher standard than has been expected of them before. Military leaders should hang their heads in shame that a female civilian had enough "guts" to point out what they should've figured out a long time ago. Gutmann bravely confronts the important issues of readiness, integration, and women's abilities, which our own military has refused to face. This book should be mandatory reading for every top military official. Gutmann is right on!, Col. David Hackworth (Ret.)author of About Face and Hazardous DutyWhat the British longbow did to the French army at Crecy in 1346, the failed military policy on gender integration has done to the U.S. armed forces at the end of the twentieth century: near total destruction. Gutmann's brilliant book must be read by all caring Americans and its cogent message be urgently transmitted to all our lawmakers.
