In the book "The Wars of the Ancient Greeks: And the Invention of Western Military Culture" he writes that "that war criminal LeMay ......"

Which was good enough for me to return the book at that point to the library.

I was called and told that someone had returned the book early. I picked it up right away.

Thanks.

Why not give the full context. Criminy you take three words and jump beyond all possible rational conclusion. You could at least give the full paragraph.

I read the book and I do not recall feeling that VDH was negative re:Lemay.

Please give context else I will maintain my previous stance

Gosh...even when given a chance, you choose to remain a colossal ignoramus.

Why is it that the only place that book title and "LeMay" shows up on a Google search is your post on FR but the terms "war criminal LeMay" and "Victor Davis Hanson" produces the result exactly as others above have quoted it?
