The Face of Battle by John Keegan

This recommended read came to me via The Maple Maverick who enthused at length about it before stuffing it into one's hands.

It is a non-fiction account of three historic battles, Agincourt, Waterloo, and the Somme, which - once one gets past the lengthy "what is military history" introduction - delves into the psychology of the participants in a quite interesting way. Rather eye-opening if one has taken movies and more strategic focused military histories to be an insight into the battles themselves.
I rate it at three and a half stars - worth a read if you are interested in the subject matter.
