'œEach work carefully evaluates the social, economic, and political effects on the army. ... Each chapter is generally well-researched and contains some of the best information available. The most interesting aspect of the book is the combat assessment of each of the armies and its potential opponents. This evaluation alone makes the book worth buying and reading. Each assessment is well-reasoned and very plausible. The authors are also quick to note influences or changes that would alter their prediction of an army's performance against different opponents. ... Fighting Armies is a short, yet very useful analysis of the potential antagonists in this most volatile part of the world.''
