As a layman reader, there were at times where I got a bit lost and bogged down in all of the granular details I had difficulty following. But most of the book was pretty easy to follow and I enjoyed reading it. I would have liked to get a bit of a better sense for the personalities of some of the "main characters" since it was a bit "plot-heavy" to use some fictional terms. But as a historical overview of what happened during the siege of Kut, this was an interesting read.

3.5-4 Stars (Good).
