Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!

He always choose to make a difference. He is a bookend to Sun Tzu. He would be very comfortable talking to T. Jefferson, Ben Franklin, Da Vinci, Clausowitz, Wright Brothers. Inventor of the OODA Loop, ME theory. Responsible for the Fighter Mafia in the Pentagon which gave design criteria for the F16. That led to the F18, F22, F35 by extension. Together with a Marine Col. the changed the maneuver strategy of our ground forces in Gulf War I and all that followed. His OODA loop is taught at all major universities across the USA.
