I've sent a few early Heinlein books to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Too bad he became a drooling fool in his old age. His last books were pretty awful.

I called him airy fairy for his last books.
I just finished rereading his juvenile science fiction.
They are still very good.

I read everything Heinlein wrote right up to about 1971. His books after that didn't do much for me. It seems like the mainstream success of the overrated 'Stranger in a Strange Land' sent him off in a direction I couldn't get into.
