Military Misfortunes: The Anatomy of Failure in WarWhy do competent armies fail? Why did the American led coalition in Iraq fail to wage a classic counter insurgency campaign for so long after the fall of Baghdad? Why was the sophisticated Israeli intelligence service so thoroughly surprised by the onslaught of combined Arab armies during the Yom Kippur War of 1973? How did a dozen German U boats manage to humiliate the U. S. Navy for nine months in 1942 sinking an average of 650,000 tons of shipping
Why do competent armies fail? - Why did the American-led coalition in Iraq fail to wage a classic counter-insurgency campaign for so long after the fall of Baghdad?- Why was the sophisticated Israeli intelligence service so thoroughly surprised by the onslaught of combined Arab armies during the Yom Kippur War of 1973?
- How did a dozen German U-boats manage to humiliate the U.S. Navy for nine months in 1942 -- sinking an average of 650,000 tons of shipping monthly?
- What made the 1915 British-led invasion of Gallipoli one of the bloodiest catastrophes of the First World War?
Since it was first published in 1990, Military Misfortunes has become the classic analysis of the unexpected catastrophes that befall competent militaries. Now with a new Afterword discussing America's missteps in Iraq, Somalia, and the War on Terror, Eliot A. Cohen and John Gooch's gripping battlefield narratives and groundbreaking explanations of the hidden factors that undermine armies are brought thoroughly up to date. As recent events prove, Military Misfortunes will be required reading for as long as armies go to war.

Pretty good for the price
Color: Brown
Honestly great quality from what it came in and I love how affordable it is. Though my one complaint is that they don't have rubber tabs underneath the legs so it just slides off pretty easily but other than that being an easy fix it"s not bad assembly was easy and it freed up a lot of room on my desk

Original review:
Received it today, packaging and everything seemed perfect. Looked over all the pieces and they seemed OK. Took a bit to assemble but not bad.
The design and construction are great. It looks awesome for my setup as you can see in pics. Really love this, or at least what it's supposed to be if everything was perfect. However, once assembled, upon closer look, I was just so disappointed. I just couldn't believe it. The bottom shelf on the left side is pretty messed up (refer to pics). Also on the right side but not quite as noticeable. Not sure what to do here, I don't think I can deal with this especially at the $100 price point. If it was in the back, I wouldn't care too much. But of course it's right in the very front just staring at me lol... I'm pretty bummed out, probably returning this unfortunately.

Fits amazing!
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
Fits just right, like a glove on my desk. Make sure you take measurement on the width, it is long. Saves a lot of space. Easy to assemble, but make sure you’re aligning the front with the front on the 1 & 2. Sturdy, amazing quality.
