elendil004-I would like a book about the Falklands War, in black hawk down style, so I can get perspectives from both sides. If there isn’t a book like that, then something comprehensive. I wanna read about the events surrounding it, but I don’t want to have to read a dozen books if I can help it.
Christoff- would like a book about why we hate the communists so much. He said a book that explains “Just why we're supposed to hate it so much as Americans”

I recommend Sink the Belgrano - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sink-Belgrano-Mike-Rossiter/dp/0552155454
I found it a great read, and it was made up heavily of interviews of people involved in both sides of the conflict. The narrative focuses on the Conquerer's journey from refit as the war started to the sinking of the Belgrano and after.
